PARENTS' CHOICE MAGAZINE AWARDS 2020

Magazines. They’re the treasures that arrive in a mailbox, not an inbox.
Whether given as a gift, prompted by a kitchen table family decision, or answering a child’s request, magazine subscriptions are a thoughtful way to say “Hi! Let’s learn something new!” throughout the year. Magazines offer perfectly sized portions of learning – about a specific topic, a broader perspective, or a soon-to-be well-worn joke. The 2020 Parents’ Choice Award®-winning magazines are for readers sitting on laps or tucked in a corner far away from the madding (or maddening) crowd. We invite you to browse the stellar list of Parents’ Choice Award-winning magazines and help the children in your lives develop a page-turning habit.

Established in 1978, Parents’ Choice Awards® is the nation’s oldest nonprofit program created to recognize quality children’s toys and media. Our selection process screens for originality of design and purpose, long-term learning value, long-term play value, fair market value, and fun. We champion toys and media that prompt kids to ask: How? Why? and What If? We honor books that tempt even the most reluctant of readers. We applaud well-crafted music that respects, not insults, children. Parents’ Choice Award winners attest to the power of learning through play. And that’s why we say: Read More. Play More. Learn More.
