2025-2027 Media Kit
Grow with Childhood Magazine
Childhood Magazine is an Australian digital publication created for educators, parents, families and the businesses that support them.
Each edition explores a dedicated childhood theme through thoughtful articles, practical ideas, professional perspectives, products and resources. Our growing collection of themed editions is designed to become an evergreen library that readers can return to and discover long after an issue is first published.
For advertisers, that means your placement isn't limited to a single week or month of exposure.
Why Advertise With Us?
-
Evergreen content – Each issue remains live and accessible for a minimum of 2 years. In practice, most content remains available for 4 years or more, giving your brand long-term visibility.
-
Targeted audience – Our readers are parents, early childhood educators, teachers, and homeschooling families across Australia and worldwide.
-
Affordable entry point – With ads starting from just a fraction of what print costs, we’re accessible for small businesses while offering meaningful impact.
-
Beautiful design – Ads appear alongside high-quality editorial content in a polished, magazine-style layout.
-
Credibility – We’re created by an early childhood teacher with a long-standing business in play-based education.
Advertising That Stays Visible
Unlike traditional advertising with a short campaign window, advertising within Childhood Magazine remains embedded within the digital edition for at least two years, with editions potentially remaining available for four years or longer.
As our readership, website, magazine library and wider Childhood Network continue to grow, past editions can continue to attract new readers.
With dozens of future themed editions already planned, businesses can also choose advertising opportunities that naturally align with their products, services and audience.
Who We Reach
Childhood Magazine is created for people who live, work and spend within the world of childhood, including:
-
Early childhood educators and teachers
-
Early childhood education and care services
-
Family day care educators
-
Schools and education professionals

Parents, carers and families
-
Toy and educational resource buyers
-
Children's businesses and service providers
A Growing Early Childhood Publication
Childhood Magazine is an emerging independent publication, and our audience is continuing to grow.
Our introductory advertising rates recognise this early stage while giving businesses the opportunity to become part of the publication at significantly reduced rates.
As new editions are published, our website expands and the broader Childhood Network develops, our existing magazine library will remain an important part of that ecosystem.
Advertise now. Stay discoverable long after publication.

Be Part of What Comes Next
Childhood Magazine is more than a digital magazine. We're building a new kind of publishing platform for Australia's early childhood community: independent, accessible, evergreen and created specifically for the people, businesses and ideas shaping childhood.
We're just getting started.
As Childhood Magazine grows, so will our readership, our library of publications and the opportunities we create for Australian educators, families, creators and businesses to find one another.
We're changing the way early childhood publishing works in Australia, one edition at a time.
And we'd love you to grow with us.
