Nothing says summer fun like thousands of fun-floating bubbles. This little gadget produces an amazing 4,000 bubbles per minute! www.funrise.com
Oh, and there’s more to come. Check back often as we’ll be giving away two cool items per week until June 1.

Affordable back-to-school shopping; types of school supplies can be reused for the following year and what should be replaced.
Inspiring stories of work-from-home moms, how they juggle it all.

Lots of warm colors, browns, oranges, yellows and even purples, filled with happy kids holding yummy food that is so delicious you can practically smell it in the pages… moms, dads, families and babies in gorgeous fall colors with a splash of fall leaves (for those that don’t get to see them here in Florida)… Super cool ideas on how to “warm a room” with a few accents, how to set a table with/for little ones with simplistic decoration and lots of creativity, and new articles of how to spend the fall outdoors creating memories, photo opportunities and volunteering. Thanks for all you do! Love this magazine!!!

I think an article on back to school savings would be great. Maybe how to mix and match outfits to save money or how to find the best deals and offers online. Thanks!!

I would love to see a spread on local photographers and who they are and samples of their work. With holidays coming in the fall, it’s nice to know who is around. Maybe “momprenuers” type of photogs in addition to others.

Fun fall recipes to celebrate the season. You could pair this with fashion and location in and around Central Florida. It would also be cool to have fun things in fall article with local family related things to do. Love reading the magazine! Thanks!

I would love to see tips on photographing kids while playing, jumping, running. Catching them without getting blurry shots is something I would love to read about. Thanks

One fo the reason I love Playground is because I feel like I am talking to another mom who is sharing some “in’s” when reading it. The articles are aimed for families living in this area and it is great. With that said, as a working single mother, I can sometimes feel left out (I may just not have had a chance to read all the issues yet) . How about an article on daycare providers in the local area that stand out? Or one about helping to build self esteem in kids with local organizations/people who specialize in this? Also, how about an article on local doctor’s (maybe for both kids and parents) who stand out and why? Or the Fall “Best of…” Edition. Thanks!!

I loved the issue you did on new hair styles for back to school. It would be great to see something like that. I would also like to see kids fashion for back to school. You guys always put together the coolest outfits!

A complete listing of all the FREE or inexpensive fall activities. You hear of the big ones like Green Meadows Pumpkin Patch but I’d love to see a collection of some of the smaller festive things to do in town!

Lunch box ideas for back to school time. Lunch boxes and lunch ideas would be great.
