Your 2 cents

The June issue of Kids Today is a cross-over issue and will reach pediatricians' offices across the country. We thought it would be a good opportunity to dispel myths about the juvenile/youth industry, educate buyers on safety, etc. We’re creating a FAQ about the industry and encourage retailers and manufacturers to submit frequently asked questions and answers for this project. E-mail your Q&Aa to lcasinger@reedbusiness.com before May 12.
