Summary: For the busy business mogal mom
Comment: My mom got me this mag for a christmas present. I loved the first one that had a whole section of the best kids books. I thought it was a feature but it wasn't. They do have a section that I love that puts new (and some old) music, books, movies, and toys into color schemes for different ages and a review of these products. They also have some great features about how to plan a unique party and some dinner ideas as well as some cover articles that I enjoyed, but so much of it is fashion and makeup and things that are so expensive (some of it kids clothes and yes the models look cute but for my daughter who likes to be able to move and get dirty, it just isn't for our family.) Even before I was married I never wore make-up and yes I like to look good but the fashion tips aren't why I want a family mag. (If so I would get a fashion mag) I want to learn what other families are like, and what solutions others have but this one just seems a little snooty. I think that is because it is aimed at the moms who are super successful business women who need to look perfect while being the best mom ever. But it still is a cute one and I like some of the features that is why I gave it three stars.

Summary: LOVE IT!
Comment: Makes me feel (for the 1/2 hour i spend reading it) that it's still possible to be Glam, even w/ jelly stuck in my hair! LOVE the fashion layouts and interviews w/ celeb moms. This magazine is geared towards those who read fashion magazines in their young childless years.

Summary: Great "eye candy" but don't bother unless you make a million a year
Comment: I agree with other reviews. I thought it was going to be a fun alternative style parenting mag. When I got it and saw that
"oh so cute" INFANT faux fur for ONLY 395 bucks I knew this was NOT the kind of magazine for me.
I hope they have enough celebrity subscriptions.....because for "normal" people this magazine is a total waste of paper.

Summary: A parenting magazine for the rich and famous---or just for gawkers like me!
Comment: If you are like the vast majority of us and don't have unlimited money, you will not actually be able to BUY anything featured in this magazine, but that doesn't mean it's not fun to look at! I was a charter subscriber because I love kids clothes, especially boutique fancy ones. That doesn't mean I buy them, at least new, but I like knowing what the expensive brands look like for when I find them at the Goodwill! That about sums up Cookie Magazine for me---I can read about what I would do if I had the money.
This really isn't that different than reading a regular parenting magazine like Parents. Most of us don't really rush out and do all the crafts they show, or cook all the recipes, but it's still fun to know what we MIGHT do some day. I guess Cookie just lets me dream a little bigger.
My least favorite part of the magazine are the profiles of famous parents and their kids, mainly because they are rarely very insightful, mainly they are just used to model clothes. I don't mind the clothes, but why pretend it's an interview?
My latest issue of Cookie seems to be half recognizing today's financial situation---it actually has an article called Money-Saving Vacations! I actually hope they don't keep going in that direction---I want to read about THRILLING EXOTIC vacations that I will never take!
If you are looking for useful down to earth parenting tips and what K-Mart is selling this season, this is not the magazine for you. If you want to indulge in parenting fantasies for a while, look no further!

Summary: Delicious mom fluff
Comment: I just started a subscription, and find this a great replacement for the fluffy escapist fashion mag subs I let run out. Of course, I don't expect to buy any of the over-priced clothing in here, but it's still nice to look at! And now I can look at eye-candy in my daughter's size, too. The articles can be superficial, but the viewpoint is miles hipper than most mom mags. If I had to see another article about decorating birthday cupcakes with clown faces I would have had to down a whole bottle of baby Tylenol. My husband gives it the thumbs-up after I suggested we take up their relationship challenge for last month and have s*x seven nights in a row. He he! Give them a break- magazines like this are for fun!
