Publisher Description
What does family fun mean to you? Crafts? Recipes? Party ideas? Travel tips? FamilyFun magazine dishes up these and more boredom-defying activities in over 180 splashy, colorful pages. Geared toward parents with young children, this energetic magazine promises to enrich the lives of families. Offering a "we've been there, we know" sort of comfort to parents, folksy first-person articles let parents know they're not alone. A sense of community is expanded further in the "My Great Idea" section--culled from readers' letters--that suggests kid-tested ideas for everything from summer games to rainy-day projects. Homeschoolers will find plenty to ponder as well--a winter issue, for example, describes how a snowflake takes shape, then suggests a paper snowflake-making project. Reviews of digital games, books, videos, and DVDs, written by industry experts, help parents feel up to the minute. FamilyFun is positively inspirational to parents who want to shake up the routine and keep the magic in a family

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I know this is a review for the mag - but so many comments on magazines are complaining about their arrival time (this one too) that it may be useful - ordered 4/11/08 - delivery estimate 7/11/08. First magazine arrived 5/5/08 - e.g. less than a month after ordering! I have had Family Fun in the past. It is a really nicely done (Disney owned) magazine - hence the re-order. The one thing I like about this magazine is that you do not have to be rich to utilize most of their suggestions/ideas. The crafts are cute and usually realistic for the recommended ages. There are often ideas that are suitable for the whole 3+ family. Many issues have spotlights on travel and things to visit - they change location and don't focus on all the hot spots all the time. For instance, I learned about Safari West - a Safari "zoo" near Santa Rosa, CA - not exactly a typical tourist trap (at least for kids). It does have a Disney slant - which can be a good thing (wholesome etc...) but don't expect a great deal of focus on diversity or multicultural suggestions (e.g. activities/places to visit). Look at this magazine basically true to its title - focusing on things families can do together.
