January is for Ringing in the Newy Year, a time of new beginings and endings. For some it is a time of inner refletion and stating their resolutions for the new year.
The more the things change the more they stay teh same. Going through my collection of vintage 1950’s Jack and Jill and Children Activities I was reminded of some new expreriences I want to try. These magazines feature heartwarming stories, fun activities, and charming graphics that can bring out the child in all of us.
The covers of the magazines showcase delightful graphics that evoke pleasant memories of the past. The illustrations inside are equally enchanting.
Each magazine also includes a mini cookbook with recipes for a complete meal and additional dishes. I think there have many fad diets taht have come and gone over the past seventy years. But loosing weight still contiues to be a popular new year's resolution.
After the meal, there are craft ideas to keep the children busy.
If crafts weren't your thing, there were stories and poetry to entertain you, or you could have a delightful sing-along around the piano.
The included calendars are fantastic and can even double as
coloring pages. One was already done by the child who this magazine
belonged to.
Look at these sons from 70 years ago.
