From the country this magazine originally hails from, ‘OYLA’ means ‘to think’ in Kazakh. With each issue offering insights and exposure to a wide variety of topics, OYLA certainly encourages its young readers to do just that. Since its initial release in 2015, this knowledge-enhancing title has been translated into six languages and published across ten countries in a bid to make science more accessible to youngsters across the globe.
Offering a unique look into world-changing discoveries, unsolved problems and the surprising scientific principles behind everyday objects - OYLA is created for children over 12.
