There’s a really good kids’ science magazine called Oyla, but it’s aimed at kids 12+

I subscribed a couple of years ago thinking that it would be fine for my son (then 8yo, but an advanced reader) but, even now (10yo), the articles are too dense for him and don’t hold his interest.

Last year, the same company launched ‘Oyla Junior’ aimed at younger kids ~8yo. But I read a couple of the articles and I think they’re too oversimplified.

I wanted something in between, but didn’t find anything suitable online.

So I used AI to create something, and did a bunch of iterations to tune the sentence length, the flow of the articles, how much info is introduced in each paragraph etc.

I still want to make it better, but it’s already good enough for my son to read.
