Gearhead Mom

I am a toy gearhead. I am a mom. Therefore, I am Gearhead Mom. I review the good, the bad and the (often) ugly in the world of baby and childhood gear.

GHM Mother’s Day Giveaway of the Day: Brain, Child Magazine

Posted by Missy W. @ 9:15 AM

GHM Mother’s Day Giveaway of the Day: Brain, Child Magazine

Congratulations to winner Aine!

Thank you so much for being a part of our first Giveaway Week. It’s been a lot of fun. I’d like to thank all of the wonderful companies who have contributed prizes. It’s a kick in the pants to get to spoil our readers with some of our most appreciated gear.

Our final Giveaway is one of our favorites! A year’s subscription to Brain, Child magazine. This Giveaway is now closed. Thanks for entering!

Jenny wrote a review of her favorite magazine a while back. Here’s a snippet of her thoughts: “Brain, Child, on the other hand, is the self-proclaimed “magazine for thinking mothers.” And I will concur that thinking is what this magazine is about: there are no product endorsements or recipes. No photos at all. Lots of text. This magazine has some of the best writing I’ve encountered in any magazine of any type—and that makes it slightly intimidating: These are Super Smart Mothers (and the occasional Dad) both editing and writing for this periodical. I am always humbled by the thoughtful, witty, poignant, and provocative pieces (and a little chagrined by the fact that these, too, are busy, overwhelmed parents but who have managed to Channel Their Talent Effectively).”

Just enter a comment below, and make sure to enter your email so we can contact you when you win (it’s never shared, sold, rented, nor will others be able to view it). Contest ends Saturday, 5/11/08 at 11:59 p.m. CDT. See full GHM Giveaway rules here.

This is one of my FAVORITE parenting magazines.  So nice to hear regular moms talk about the real trials and rewards of parenting.

This mag may be pitched to moms, but it is a good read for dad too.

I love Brain, Child…I just read my first issue a couple of weeks ago—cover to cover!  It reminded me I do have a brain.  smile
