Our November issue is out! And it’s chock-full of great information for parents and dozens of family fun ideas.
We discuss a variety of methods to help keep kids mentally healthy – from bonding at birth and typical preschool issues to a look at pediatric psychotropic medication and the very serious topic of teens and suicide. Heavy, but incredible important, reading.
Our feature on single individuals who choose to become parents explores who these brave souls are, why they embark on this journey alone and where they get the support they need to be successful.
We review two family-friendly destinations – OMSI’s latest exhibit on the science of fear and the recently-opened Mercy Corps Action Center, a “museum” unlike any you’ve ever experienced.
And we invite all of you to join our 2009 Holiday Giving Campaign. You can read about that on page 26 or click here for details (and to donate).
Our regular features – Going Places with Ramona, Angels Among Us and our amazing Family Calendar – are last, but definitely not least.
Pick up your copy of the November issue at more than 1,300 locations throughout the region. Or click here to read the online version.
