I don't think writing for children is at all easy. It is a writing that must follow precise guidelines. Writing for adults comes naturally to me, perhaps because as an adult we assume a more mature, more direct communication for those in our age group. But when we turn to children the question becomes more complicated. The public is different, more delicate, has less knowledge, but that doesn't mean it's stupid. Indeed, perhaps it is more difficult to deceive a child with our stories than an adult.
Today, for the day dedicated to children , I wanted to think about the aspects to take into consideration when writing for children. And I did it by creating a second cross blogging, but different from the first. Here there will be a path to follow, a path that will start from here and Phone Number Data which can be monitored on Twitter with the hashtag #blog4child . Outline age ranges Children are not all the same age. Writing a story for a 4 year old child (he can't read, but he will listen to it from his parents) is not like writing it for a 7 or 10 year old. The first problem I would ask myself is therefore to establish my target audience. After all, all the experts say this when it comes to designing a promotional campaign or launching a company blog: define and know your audience.
And so the writer will have to do, in my opinion, understand which children to address and then write their story. Exclude literary genres? I saw some horror stories for children. I also read a horror novel, but it wasn't for little ones, maybe it was good for children aged 8-9. Of course, I would never write a horror story for 4 year olds. I would exclude detective stories, thrillers, obviously. Espionage, in short, all those genres that require both a lot of concentration and adult themes. The Fantastic - ok, I'm obsessed with this genre - I think it's an optimal choice, because it will let the child enter unexplored worlds that will pique his curiosity and keep his attention high.
