There is so much one can draw - find the things you enjoy, or see around you :)

That is a great suggestion Eliana. The only trouble is finding topics you all would be interested in discussing.. maybe the suggestions could come from you, and we pick one each week?

It works for us. Maybe this is blocked on your device?

Hi - We hope your family and friends are doing fine. Our thoughts are with everyone affected by this disaster.

Good question Eliana. On weekends, we sometimes get busy between publishing articles and activities with our families. We are a small team, and try to approve comments a couple of times on Sat/Sun. This weekend was unusually busy.

Interesting that you found this Eliana! You sure have been exploring the Youngzine site :-)

Every summer, we invite children to join our team as a Young Editor. They can submit a sample of their writing, and we evaluate them and inform them if they are selected. They write main articles and we work with them closely over six weeks in summer. 

 

Last year we had six children who joined the team, and this was a chat forum for them and us - the editors.

You are right dolphingirl. It is unfortunate.. and we hope some good will come out of this.

The important thing is knowing we each have the power in us to work for a fair and just society. Perhaps some of you children may be inspired, and could make a difference in the future :-)

Hi getlikegrand240 - We noticed your comment while approving it. You should share what is happening with an adult around you - someone who cares like your mother. There is nothing wrong in that, and it is not fair. NO ONE should be bullied as everyone is special in their own way.

We had written a couple of articles on bullying here (click on them).

October is Anti-bullying month

Strategies to deal with bullying

You are absolutely right. These are some generalizations based on majority traits. Many US presidents have been left handed, but were they creative - not sure, but they were certainly ambitious!

Editor   5 days ago  on  Left Out Or Not?

We think left handed people are cool and unique - only 10% of the world's population. Why do you wish to be right handed? 

Editor   6 days ago  on  U Chat

Absolutely! You can take a close up picture or your art and mail it to us at editor@youngzine.com
