How can we understand the world without leaving home? Parents can easily use mobile phones, computers, and other media every day, but what about children? Paper periodicals may be the most traditional but also the most beneficial way! Think about it carefully, in today's advanced science and technology, our children are looking at the pictures of paper periodicals with relish, which is even more precious!
Last year, I recommended a set of well-made and beautifully designed paper magazines - "NYT for Kids China Lifelike", which is designed for Chinese children aged 6-14, and all content is presented in both Chinese and English. It is widely loved by parents and children, and has received rave reviews.
At the beginning of the new year of 2023, Lifelike Duoduo has been revised and upgraded, from the previous newspaper to a magazine, the overall lighter, the font is larger, and the folio is smaller, making it more convenient for children to read, carry and collect.
The first is the size, which has changed from the original long and narrow newspaper form to a normal magazine format, which is more convenient to read and carry, and has become two books a month; the second is that the font size has become larger, the reading experience is more comfortable, and it is also more eye-friendly; third, the overall art style has become lighter, and the illustrations will better balance the message and storytelling. Continuing the child-centered, serious and lively tradition of "Lifelike Duoduo", it looks at the world and cares about the perspective of local stories, pays attention to diversity, and upholds the values of truth, goodness and beauty.
THIS WELL-CRAFTED BILINGUAL PUBLICATION RETAINS THE PREVIOUS "NEWS AND TRENDS" SECTION, WITH THREE SECTIONS: "WORLD" AND "ROTATING SECTIONS". The "New Knowledge" and "World" sections focus on domestic and global topics, while the "Rotating Topics" set up topics for science, style, sports, food, travel, art, business, and viewpoints, combining the key points of current affairs, taking into account science and insight, and telling what is happening in the world in children's language in simple terms. Loved by many readers.
As long as you open this magazine, you can see the heart on every page and the highlights everywhere.
Interpret the world from a child's point of view
The first of the editorial philosophy of Lifelike Duoduo is to insist on interpreting the changing world from the perspective of children, while ensuring the timeliness of consultation. The paper magazine explains the cutting-edge scientific trends and hot issues that make adults headaches from the perspective of their peers, and children are not only readers, but also participants, and children can become small editors or little consultants to participate in the content.
For example, "The Wandering Earth 2" has recently become a hot topic again, in addition to the fascinating storyline, many young readers still have many question marks waiting to be answered: Is the space elevator real? How is the solar storm filmed during the test engine? What is a solar storm? In fact, all the wild imagination in the movie is not a fantasy, but a scientific evidence, plus a variety of special props and visual effects, there will be such a wonderful scene. "Lifelike" interviewed film director Guo Fan, art and styling director Gao Ang, and other crew members to find out all the information you want to know.
Reliable quality bilingual learning corpus
With a bilingual editorial team, you'll find both original NYT for Kids content and local stories happening around you.
All English content in the publication is strictly reviewed by the editorial team of The Times, from word choice to sentence formation to grammatical structure, to ensure authentic standards, providing children with reliable quality and reliable corpus for English learning.
The original Chinese content in the publication also provides children with the most vivid and cutting-edge first-hand information and current affairs, and all articles invite experts in various fields to review and verify the information to ensure the reliability of the information source.
High standard visual aesthetic system
In addition to the features of the editorial system, "Lifelike Duoduo" has a strong principle of visual expression - not to lower the aesthetic standards of design just because the reader is a child. Being able to touch and flip through the touch of the paper with both hands, and measuring the design and layout of each layout with both eyes, is always the best way to read, especially for children.
Fun and informative at the same time
The style of the publication is conversational, friendly, and novel, but at the same time rigorous, and it resonates with children in a fun and interactive way.
Paper magazines are expressed in language that is easy for children to understand and in a way they like, and children should be vivid, playful, and should be playful. For example, there is an article in the new issue that teaches children to learn baking.
What's the difference between a cookie and a cake? What is the difference between a muffin and a muffin? Obviously, it tastes different. But if you look at the ingredient list, it seems to be much the same: they all contain flour, sugar, butter and eggs.
By changing the way the ingredients are handled (e.g. with melted butter or cold butter cubes) and how they are blended, the texture and flavor of the finished product can be changed. According to Alyssa Karco, a professor of baking at Kansas State University, recipes are "designed to achieve a certain balance," that is, the right ingredients are used to achieve specific textures, flavors and humidity. Bakers spend a lot of time figuring out what kind of combinations to bake the fluffiest cakes, the crispiest cookies, and the most moist muffins. Not all experiments are successful: "Don't give up on tweaking your recipe just because you've baked a collapsed cake," says Karko, "it's just a learning process, and that's how great scientists are trained." ”
From the children, for the children
Of course, the children are not only readers of this publication, but they are also invited to participate in the selection of topics and the creation of content. Columns such as opinions, book reviews, and regular essay calls are all stages for children. Children can also sign up to become young journalists, participate in various exploration camps and experience activities organized by Lifelike Duoduo, and see where Lifelike Duoduo and the children have been in the past year.
In the past year, Lifelike Duoduo has had interesting conversations with students from these schools, and we welcome more students to join us and make their voices heard.
Lifelike Duoduo received reading feedback from children from all over the country.
