Welcome, 2023!

PUBLISHER - EDITOR our readers had a chance to vote for their favorite business based on their value and service in many different categories. In this issue, we are revealing the winners! Congratulations to all of you!

During December, New year, new goals, and on page 6 you will have a great article on how to teach your kids to set realistic goals as individuals and as a family!

We started this first issue of the year with a super interview and also on the cover page Ron Magill, the very well-known American wildlife expert and Communications Director at Zoo Miami. Don’t miss the interview on pages 20 and 21, and also the behind the scenes pictures and videos coming up on our social media pages.

Love is in the air, and on the cover page, we wanted to introduce you to a brand we LOVE. “Cherubino” an European brand now in the USA impressed me as a mom for the quality of their pieces. As parents, we are always looking for the comfort of our children and Cherubino is here to bring comfort to their everyday life. Read a full interview on pages 22 and 23 with Renata Doralieva CEO of the brand.

As requested by many parents, our best and most complete guide for the summer, Summer Camp Guide number I sponsored by iSwim Academy on pages 22 and 23.

February is the month of love and we have a Valentines Gift Guide for the entire family. In March we celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day and we have some ideas of activities to do with the family.

How can we love others if we don’t love ourselves? Check out this beautiful article on page 11 by our talented writer Diane Landsberg. And if we talk about love, nothing better than rewarding our loved ones with a significant present. Check out page 38 “Valentine’s Gift Guide” with many cute ideas for the entire family! Remember that you can always create something with your own hands! Stay tuned for some ideas on our social media pages and newsletter!

We are proud that during the month of January, we were able to give away a toiletry basket that includes a hand sanitizer, face mask, hand soap, towel, and a toothbrush to one reader per day on our social media pages. We hope that while having the virus around, we maintain social distancing and keep washing our hands and taking the respective precautions.

If you want to prepare in advance on where your children will go for camp this year,our good friend Nick Bevilacqua and ISwim Academy will deliver one more time our Spring and Summer Camp Guide I on page 24. Get ready and start learning with the best options in town.

I send much love to you and your family, and thank you for reading our magazine!

Cheers to all of us, we are here for you, stronger than ever and ready to provide you with great articles, keep planning great events, and continue with our mission to integrate exceptional kids into society!
