FamilyFun Crafts for Kids

After FamilyFun closed down last June, I got to continue working on the content through the summer producing a newsstand-only issue called Crafts for Kids. It’s so full of projects and recipes to do with the kids for both the holidays and the every days.

For this project, I managed and planned the content, and worked with the in-house team at Meredith to put the finishing touches on a few brand new stories. Proofreading a project this large always feels like a monumental feat towards the end, but it helped that it was content that I loved—and that many of the projects came from some of my favorite developers.

Keep an eye out for the bright purple cover on newsstands near you now through early 2019—and definitely pick it up if you have elementary-age kids who love to be creative!

I recently did a batch of videos with a collaboration between FamilyFun and Better Homes and Gardens that were released this spring on the social channels of both brands. It's been so fun to team up with another Meredith brand to produce content that both of our audiences enjoy!

Our new issue of FamilyFun is hitting mailboxes and it's a good one. It's loaded with fun Easter ideas, family food, and travel ideas. I loved working on the Easter crafts, the STEAM story, and a handful of our food stories.

FamilyFun: Oct/Nov 2017

Our new issue of FamilyFun is out and it's such a great way to get ready for fall with the kids. I worked on a few stories that I wanted to share, including some recipe development work on changing up classic fish sticks.

And I wanted to share a peek at a few craft stories that I worked on as the editor, with my talented team of crafters.
