The Boston Parents' Paper is "Massachusetts' No. 1 Parenting Magazine." It's a free, monthly magazine with a large calendar of events section, articles, and columns. The ads are great for local resources too, such as schools, childcare, classes, entertainment, tutoring, health, and activities.

You can find the magazine at your local library, some supermarkets and book stores. If you can't find it, you can read the whole issue on the web site at www.bostonparentspaper.com.

You can sign up for enewsletters too, such as the weekly Boston calendar, Practical Parenting, and Feeding Your Family.

Also online, you'll find updated calendar listings, blogs, online message boards, articles, and links to local resources. The national site, www.parenthood.com, includes even more features, such as baby names, conception/pregnancy/parenthhood sections, family recipes, and more.
