The gift that keeps giving year round

Still search­ing for that spe­cial gift for some­one on your list? How about a mag­a­zine? Even chil­dren enjoy get­ting some­thing in the mail each month and a mag­a­zine is a way to keep the gifts com­ing all year long.

Here are some “green” titles to con­sider for adults: Organic Gar­den­ing; Organic Fam­ily Mag­a­zine; The Green Par­ent; E-The Envi­ron­men­tal Mag­a­zine; Sierra Mag­a­zine; National Wildlife Mag­a­zine; Mother Earth News; Kiwi (fam­ily mag­a­zine); Veg­e­tar­ian Times; Clean Eat­ing; Eat­ing Well; Veg­News; Nat­ural Home; and Organic Spa. The list goes on, depend­ing on the inter­ests of the per­son you are buy­ing for.

Have some chil­dren on your list? Con­sider one of these selec­tions: All Round Mag­a­zine; Ranger Rick; Your Big Back­yard; National Geo­graphic for Kids (or For Lit­tle Kids); Yum Food & Fun For Kids; and a favorite of mine, Chop Chop (a cook­ing mag­a­zine for fam­i­lies). There are a plethora of other mag­a­zines for kids out there, depend­ing on the inter­ests of the child.

Enjoy the hol­i­day sea­son and remem­ber to recy­cle all the bows, wrap­pings, tis­sue paper and other trap­pings to keep as much out of the land­fill as pos­si­ble. Make it a game or a chal­lenge for your fam­ily this year.
