Books & magazines clubs for kids
Magazines and reading material that arrive on a schedule. 4 clubs, cheapest first.
Magazines are not letter clubs, but they arrive monthly with a child's name on them, which for a four-year-old is most of the magic. They are also by a wide margin the cheapest thing in this directory. The trade-off is that nothing is personalized beyond the mailing label and almost all of them are annual-only, so read what you are committing to.
