DOES anyone know if theres anyt magazines for children or just educational home mailings? I homeschool a child

You did not say what ages the kids are. Focus on the Family has several magazines for kids.

The Old Schoolhouse magazine that the first responder posted is *not* free and it's *not* for kids. You can get all sorts of free educational materials through the mail from government offices: U.S. Mint, FDA, Forestry dept, Federal Reserve Bank, etc. Also state and local agencies give these out. I just rec'd a huge box from our state's Dept. of Natural Resources - and 22 awesome, huge posters. As for magazines, there are a lot of kids' magazines. Our favorites are Kids Discover, Highlights, and Odyssey. All magazines have subscriptions. We get National Geographic (not the kids' version - I can't stand it) for $12 with the educator price. The *best* place to get "free" magazines is to check them out at your library. Our librarian says those they have do not get enough circulation; he'd like to see more kids reading them. If you do a 'net search for something like "free teaching tools" or "free educator materials", you'll come up with a lot of hits.

well, i searched for those magazines on google, and i found a good magazine you can subscribe to for your kids. i hope this helps! http://www.thehomeschoolmagazine.com/
