Chickadee (magazine)
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Infobox".Template:Template otherScript error: No such module "check for unknown parameters". Chickadee (formerly stylized as chickaDEE) is a Canadian monthly children's magazine. It was founded in 1979[1] as a spin-off of OWL Magazine geared towards younger readers. Its headquarters is in Toronto.[2]
Originally, the magazine was aimed at kids up to the age of eight and focused on science and nature. Founding editor Janis Nostbakken created a mix of puzzles, activities, and stories, including recurring characters such as Henry the Pig [3] and Daisy, the transforming heroine of the "Daisy Dreamer" comics.
Over time the magazine has become aiming at kids aged six to nine,[2] and has gradually become a more general-purpose children's magazine.
The magazine was published by the Young Naturalist Foundation.[2] In 1997, Chickadee (as well as sister publications OWL and Chirp) was purchased by Bayard Canada,[4] which also owns a number of French-language children's magazines, including Les Débrouillards and Les Explorateurs.
