Celebrate Children's Magazine Month

October is "Children's Magazine Month" and the Association of Educational Publishers (AEP) and library supplier Demco Inc. want to encourage children, parents, and teachers to view magazine reading as a more valuable activity.

Together, they launched "Flip for Magazines!," an initiative that includes a Web site with a comprehensive list of children's magazines, sample lesson plans, ideas for classroom use of magazines, a research section, and testimonials from children and teachers. Posters, bookmarks, banners, and giveaways are available from Demco.

ACEI is a member of AEP, and a repeat winner in their Distinguished Achievement Award Program.

For more information about "Flip for Magazines!" and Children's Magazine Month, visit the AEP Web site at www.edpress.org, call AEP at 856-241-7772, or send E-mail to mail@edpress.org.
