All Things Considered

Okido
Posted by Kate Sullivan

The art and science magazine Okido, is the brainchild of illustrator Rachel Ortis and designer and scientist, Dr. Sophie Dauvois. This exciting, educational and beautifully illustrated magazine was launched last year and aimed at children aged between two and seven.

Printed on sturdy recycled paper using vegetable inks, the magazine encourages lots of drawing, cutting and entertainment and unlike most other kids magazines printed on flimsy, shiny paper, Okido entices parents to read and play along too.

I've purchased the magazine from Borders in Norwich and if you live in London, there are many other stockists. Click here to finds out where. Alternatively, you can subscribe to Okido on-line. A subscription will buy six issues and the magazine is published every three months.
