A cool free Scandinavian online magazine for parents and kids: Ja tack!

Every once in a while, something amazing comes along in the land of kids and parents that makes me giddy with excitement. And more often than not, whatever that amazing thing may be ends up costing me a lot of money. Not so with my recent discovery of a totally free online magazine devoted to all things Scandinavian.

 

The brand new Danish online design magazine from the website Lille Nord, is dedicated to showcasing Scandinavian designers, artists, products and shops in the trendiest of ways. And it's all free. Which I love, of course.

The fourth issue of Lille Nord just out, is filled to the brim with summer inspiration. I love finding simple recipes (but, fair warning, they do require conversions from grams and milliliters if you want to attempt them) and unique home decor ideas, mixed in with sweet craft projects and fashion spreads, too.

Read all four issues of Lille Nord and get to know "The North" in the coolest of ways.
