Sharing A Flower

by Summer M.

I had planned to write about this sooner but kept forgetting. So I apologize for being so late.

root_and_sprout.jpgLis Garret is calling for parents to submit articles by May 15th (I told you I was late) for her new online magazine Root and Sprout. If you haven’t visited yet Root and Spout is a great online magazine for parents looking to raise their children in a gentler, saner fashion.

Here at Root & Sprout, we believe the connection between parent and child is what’s most important, and it’s a relationship that grows through mutual love and respect. With gentle, hands-on parenting, we can give our children the necessary roots to help them sprout.

This is just the type of site that I know AP parents would love to have. And being able to share your own advice and stories is just the icing on the cake. As Lis says it does not have to be heavy or deep, just something that you think other parents need to know about. As parents we are all valuable and have some knowledge that someone else out there needs. Why not share it?

To add a little more fun Root and Spout is having a contest right now. Subscribe to the Root & Sprout newsletter between now and May 31st and you will be entered in a drawing to win a Root & Sprout Canvas Tote Bag. Send an email to newsletter@rootandsprout.com with the word “subscribe” in the subject field. Get someone else to sign up, and your name will be entered TWICE. Just tell your friend to say “[insert your name] referred me.”

If you are interested in writing something the deadline for the next (June 15th) edition is June 1st. And after that articles submitted by June 15th will be in the June 29th edition. There is a call for special content for those editions asking for articles on celebrating Independence Day in the US. It could be a great topic for sharing!
