DALLAS, Texas — DFWChild magazine has once again been recognized among the nation’s best in parenting journalism, earning 14 honors at the 2025 Parenting Media Association Editorial and Design Awards, including the top honor, General Excellence Gold, for the second year in a row.
The awards celebrate the highest achievements in editorial and design across parenting media nationwide. DFWChild received ten Gold, three Silver, and one Bronze in categories spanning storytelling, photography, visual presentation and service journalism. Its ancillary publication, DFWBaby, and weekly e-newsletter, The Weekend, were also recognized for excellence.

We are grateful to the DFW-area families who have so generously shared their stories, to the local experts who have offered thoughtful insight on complex topics, and to our readers for your constant support and inspiration.
