25 Years of Our KidsFrom balance beams to ballet, football to fashions … Our Kids San Antonio covers it all. When the magazine was introduced as San Antonio For Kids in 1985, then-publisher Steven Davis wrote: “San Antonio For Kids was born with a single goal – to help local parents find wholesome activities and entertainment for their children. In the 25 years the magazine has been in existence, the goal has not changed. “We’ve come a long way since starting in 1985,” says Our Kids Publisher Pat Ramotowski. “The publication started as a tabloid with no color. Later we added color to the cover. Then we changed to a magazine format and added full color. We have gone from printing 25,000 copies to 50,000.” While some might think that number is not that large, Ramotowski is quick to point out that Our Kids is shared or circulated among parents and families. |

Her daughter made her own conclusion with: "Is it because you got married later on in life?" |
