History

OKIDO Magazine, an independent publication, was started by parents from a kitchen table in Brixton in 2007, it was designed to fire up young imaginations and spark a life-long love of art and science. Today its founders, scientist Dr Sophie Dauvois

(PhD BSc PG Dip.) and artist Rachel Ortas, are still every bit as passionate about engaging young kids in the scientific world around them using play, art and fun. OKIDO Magazine is now published monthly with a circulation of over 9,000 having won a host of awards and celebrity fans.

The magazine was funded by a Wellcome Trust Small Arts Grant from 2007 until 2009. In 2009, OKIDO was funded by a Wellcome Trust Large Arts Grant. In 2011, OKIDO became self-funded. Starting in 2014, OKIDO was published by Doodle Productions Ltd.
