Progressive Preschool / PreschoolNews.net

A totally unique cross-category trade publication, news website and awards for preschool product, co It’s not just nursery shops that sell nursery equipment.

Progressive Preschool magazine is a highly regarded resource for professionals in the preschool industry. The unique B2B cross-category trade publication and website Preschoolnews.net covers a diverse range of topics, including nursery, toys, gifts, homewares, publishing, apparel, and licensing. We provide valuable insights, news, and updates that can help industry players stay ahead of the curve

and make informed decisions. The title was launched in response to a dramatic change in retail behaviour whereby retailers – both major and independent, had to diversify their product ranges. Progressive Preschool Magazine is printed bi-monthly and has an open editorial policy. This means that the magazine is readable, content-worthy and something that retailers are happy to engage with. Whilst we canvass advertising support to maximise your coverage, we welcome editorial submissions from every company in the nursery trade. As the only cross-category trade publication covering the preschool sector, Progressive Preschool Magazine is sent to a circulation of 8,744 in print, plus a further 17,492 in digital format. We also host the Progressive Preschool Awards, which recognise excellence in the preschool industry and are a valuable tool for industry players to gain recognition and exposure - entries for 2024 are OPEN now.
