Hi mummies and daddies,
A very warm welcome to the new year and the latest issue of your fave parenting mag!

This is the time of the year when everyone seeks to review their life patterns and refresh and renew their perspective on many things. This is also the time when, after the last few months of excess, everyone is trying to adopt a more wholesome, holistic lifestyle. Keeping this mood of rejuvenation and reinvention in mind, we’ve put together a special Back to Basics edition especially for you.

It should help you take a closer look at certain aspects of pregnancy, birthing and parenting and decide what’s best for you and your baby. From learning to make your baby’s first jhabla to learning about ecofriendly mums; from all-natural birth stories to bringing up your baby in a vegan environment; from traditional home remedies to introducing your child to nature travel... there’s a lot to inspire you this January.

And, at the other end of the spectrum, ‘cos we do live in a material world (!) even if we believe there’s more to life than conspicuous consumption, there’s also M&B’s definitive age-wise toy guide for this year, which will help you decide what’s suitable for your tot and what’s not.

I sincerely hope to hear from you how you enjoyed this rather different issue of M&B!
