From the Editor

The last Parent and Child Show was held in Auckland last month and it was lovely to meet some of you at the Just Shopping stand. Hopefully you were one of the lucky ones that got the great Just Shopping bags, if not I will keep you posted as to when some more will be coming in.

If your Christmas school holiday plans have you journeying down to Dunedin then the new Tropical Rainforest is a must see. This brand new exhibit is at the Otago Museum and features a three-storey wonderland filled with beautiful butterflies, tropical plants and many other wonderful things. Have a sneak preview in our travel section this month.

Paul Miller has a test drive in the brand new Fiat Bravo which will be available from early next year. You may also want to check in again with Paul for the December issue if you plan to do any towing with your car. Paul gives you the low-down on towing, just in time for the school holidays.

We have a few tasty treats to try out for all those pre-Christmas parties you are planning. Check them out in our food section this month.

And with the season of giving almost upon us, take a look at the Books for Babes Trust article. Who knows, you could make a difference in a young child's life in 2008!

Of course, there is a lot more to read, so check out the other items on our home page.

So enjoy this month and keep safe.

Cheers
