Abstract:
According to researchers, Ukrainian periodicals for children today can be classified as follows: for preschoolers, for primary school children, and for teenagers. For preschoolers, these are cognitive and game publications (Yablunka, Piznayko (from 3 to 6 years old)), cognitive and artistic publications (Veselochka, Dobryk), cognitive and entertainment publications (Yizhachok, Domovochok), educational and game publications (Abetka, Bukvynky-Veselynky). For primary school children, periodicals mostly contain cognitive, educational and developmental materials ("Veseli Uroky", "Krayina Znannya"), entertainment and game publications ("Malyuk Kotya", "Piznayko", "Klasni Krossvordy"), as well as literary and artistic publications ("Dyvosvit", "Skazkovyi Veser"), etc. The publications for teenagers are characterised by the fact that the thematic spectrum of these periodicals is narrowing, and the issues covered are becoming more meaningful. These are literary and artistic, cognitive, educational and entertaining publications such as "Young Modeller-Architect", "Young Modeller-Designer of Technology", etc [1].
