Our October issue is hitting the stands this week with our annual fall focus on Pediatric Health. In an Ages & Stages covering Hot Topics in Pediatric Health , we spotlight some new recommendations, new research and new innovations in a variety of pediatric health arenas – from vitamin D deficiencies in infants to childhood food allergies to kid-friendly hospital programs to updated requirements for adolescent vaccines. It’s a potpourri of pediatric health news we think you should know about. The issue also includes our Performing Arts Preview for 2010-11 , with some of the most enticing shows – from theater and puppets to music and dance – of the upcoming season. Of course you’ll find all your favorite regular columns, too, including an eye-opening day at the Portland Art Museum in Going Places with Ramona , a Family Fare review of Laughing Planet cafes , a Viewpoint column on responsible antibiotic use , and an Angels Among Us focus on Josiah Hill III Clinic . And our Family Fun Calendar is, as always, packed with family fun, including a special section highlighting Harvest and Halloween fun. Pick up your copy next week, or read it online beginning October 1.
