An Inspiration Called "Kiddo"


At the time when my twin boys were attending daycare; it was very hard to find Spanish books or magazines that not only would teach the language but also transmit culture. As parents, we started to generate ideas about creating a kid’s publication. It would tell stories and fables passed on from our parents and grandparents and have games and activities in both languages, English and Spanish.

With this concept, a purpose, a target audience, and the desire to teach our Hispanic culture and language; it was just a matter of giving the magazine a proper name.
The name "kiddo" comes from a former boss and friend (Thomas Nater) who called me “kiddo”. In my mind, “kiddo” had the image of a little girl or boy playfully learning. We now had a name for our bilingual magazine: “Kiddo Magazine”. The rest of this story is now a collection of numerous issues that we have been publishing since 2007.    

How It All Started


Since Kiddo Magazine was launched in 2007, during the Folk Arts Festival - Open house of the Latin American Cultural Club of Niagara Region, it has come to be well known among many families in and outside of the Niagara Region (Hamilton, Mississauga, Milton, Brampton, Oakville, and Toronto). The magazine’s continued involvement in cultural events; fairs and festivals have also contributed to the promotion of the Hispanic culture and its success. 

From the beginning, Kiddo Magazine has been the joint effort of professionals in various fields working as a team under the same objective: Preserve and disseminate the Spanish language, cultural heritage, and family values to new generations of Hispanic Canadians and Hispanic Americans. That effort continues and has always been a rewarding venture.

The niche gave us the opportunity to create something unique and Kiddo Magazine continues to challenge us just as playful kiddo growing up. The idea is now an institution that day to day explores new ways to transmit knowledge, reach and engage more and more kids.
