Halloween on a Budget with the National Magazine Exchange

Trying to cut back a bit but still give your kids the Halloween they want? There are a number of ways to celebrate the orange-and-black holiday without breaking the bank. The key principle is to do and make yourself what you might otherwise have just bought at a store or ordered online.  

Home crafts magazines, such as those you can order from the National Magazine Exchange, will provide timely tips geared towards each holiday as it comes. For Halloween, you can learn simple but surefire ways to make your child a costume he will enjoy wearing, as well as a guide towards carving pumpkins and creating Halloween-themed decorations for holiday parties – or just to liven up your home for those youthful trick-or-treaters.

Great Holiday Ideas with National Magazine Exchange

Your kids are demanding that you sew them specific costumes; your neighbors are putting up all of their great Halloween decorations; and you, well you have nothing yet for Halloween.  Oh dear.  It's time to get ready for the holiday that is coming so soon!

What is a busy woman to do?  One of the best ways to keep up with the holidays that always seem to be right around the corner is to have a subscription to a magazine.  Many women's magazines, craft magazines and family magazines from a company like National Magazine Exchange will offer great suggestions for crafts, costumes, baked goods and more.  And, you'll always be on top of the holiday cheer and the holiday barrage.

Keep yourself in the know with the right magazines from NME!

Share Magazines with Your Daughter

Your daughter is becoming a teenager, no matter how much in denial you are about this. You can’t stop her from doing the things that teenage girls do, but you can try to get more involved in her life so that you can see what she is doing. 0ne way of doing this is by developing a shared interest and a fun idea for this is getting a subscription from a company like the National Magazine Exchange. You can pick an educational subject like sewing (if you think your daughter will be interested) or dance. The most important thing to remember is make sure it’s something she enjoys, or at least has the potential to enjoy. There’s no point in pushing her into something because you enjoy it. Listen to her and respond to her requests. But remember also that with a subscription from the National Magazine Exchange, you are free to change your subject matter without any extra charge so you can try something out without being committed! Use this tool to join with your daughter and bond with her during the oft-tough teenage years.
