    I really like this wee magazine. My friends picks up an extra copy from
    the Kindy her daughter attends. I enjoy having a coffee and catching
    up with what other parents are up to. The help columns are really
    useful too, they have great contributers.

    Although I have yet to win anything in the freebies, I live in hope ;o)

  • Carey

    I grab this magazine whenever I see it, I really like the educational
    content at the back and the birthday party themes. I often use the
    cooking and craft ideas at home and at Playcentre.

  • Franky

    This is a cool little mag, especially since it’s free! Great for recipe’s and good tips.

  • Karaz

    We get this mag all the time at school, it has great tips and is as we all know it’s free, which makes it more interesting!

  • Vivid

    I love the littles mag, even though it is small it is packed full of great reading. I also think it is great that it is Free!!!

  • Hildreth

    I like all the great ideas to keep kids of all ages (up to 5)
    entertained. Great to because it’s free from pumpkin patch & some
    pharmacies. Highly recommend

  • Tineke

    I love this magazine it covers a variety of subjects with lots of useful
    information and ideas. Would recommend it to other parents.

  • By_er

    I always get this magazine and keep the copies – it has great writers
    such as Diane Levy and always has things that I would oike to try at
    home with the kids. Keep it up Littlies!!! We need freebies like this!

  • Woodsy

    I really like this one and it’s free too. Very good advice from
    professional people included. Aimed at NZ’ers. Aimed at mature parents
    and young alike.

  • Spuds_mum

    I actually subscribe to this, as the local pharmacy runs out too quickly
    and I dont live near a pumpkin patch. Even with a 17 week old there is
    alot of informative information, and I will certainly be taking alot of
    ideas from it as he gets older. Great easy recepies as well!

  • 2boysmum

    I think this mag is fantastic, perfect size to read while my youngest is
    asleep, great tips and i LOVE the recipes and themed birthday party
    section! great that it is free:)

  • Mum4

    This is agreat read for parents even greater is the fact that it is free
    and easily avaliable what more can you ask for in a magazine really.
    Seriously try out the activities they are terrific and keep the kids
    amused for hours.

  • Chubbas

  • Lilmama_nik89

    Since im a mother 2 be i actually find this magazine quite interesting.
    usually im just a cleo magazine reader but latey i have been getting the
    littlies magazine every now and then and it has alot of information
    that i have no clue about. Because of being a 1st time mother i dont
    know what to expect in a pregnancy and what else goes wrong this
    magazine actualy helped me to understand a bit more, apart from what i
    have heard.

  • Legolas

    This great little magazine comes out monthly and it’s free. Full of
    excellent articles, I keep these in my cupboard and quite often refer
    back to them.

  • Lilmissprecious

    i recon this magazine is quite good i love the cooking and craft ideas
    by far. the main bonus is is that it’s free you’d seriously think the
    makers would charge a little something considering how good it is. i
    recomend to read it.

    The Littlies magazine is great. Has lots of interesting articles in it. I
    love reading the magazines (when I can get my hands on one that is). 

  • Mandykelly

    I have to say that for a free magazine “Littlies” does not lack
    anything. It is informative and great reading. I love the recipes and
    party hints and have a giggle reading the letters and articles. I enjoy
    every aspect of the magazine and cant wait to get the next one from my
    P.A.F.T teacher.

  • Bee

    I try to read from cover to cover and its worth it. i like to try the recipes.
