Kids AI Magazine (学前亲子AI电子杂志)

Generate interactive HTML magazines that turn AI news into stories for 3-6 year olds, with TTS audio narration.

Workflow

1. Collect News

Gather 3-5 current AI news items from reliable sources (36氪, 澎湃, TechCrunch, etc.). For each item, extract:

  • Core fact (one sentence)
  • Why it matters
  • Source URL

2. Adapt Stories

Transform each news item into a kids story. Each story needs:

  • Title: Fun, curiosity-driven (e.g., "机器人宝宝学走路啦！")
  • Paragraphs: 2-3 short paragraphs, use analogies to things kids know (bikes, scissors, building blocks)
  • TTS text: Pure Chinese narration text, no English words (replace "AI" → "智能技术", "GPU" → "芯片"), add verbal cues ("你知道吗？", "是不是很神奇呀？")
  • Parent-child dialogue: 2 Q&A pairs (child asks naive question → parent gives educational answer)
  • Parent note: Brief context for parents + source link
  • Icon: One emoji per story

3. Generate Audio

Prerequisite: pip3 install edge-tts

python3 scripts/generate_audio.py --stories stories.json --voice zh-CN-XiaoxiaoNeural --output-dir ./output

Voices: zh-CN-XiaoxiaoNeural (女声, recommended), zh-CN-YunxiNeural (男声), zh-CN-XiaoyiNeural (女童声)

TTS text rules:

  • No English words (TTS reads them letter by letter)
  • Add pauses with commas and periods
  • Use onomatopoeia: "噗通！摔倒啦！"
  • Warm narrator tone: "小朋友们好呀～"

4. Build HTML

Use assets/template.html as the base. The template includes:

  • Colorful header with rainbow gradient
  • Story cards with embedded audio players
  • Parent-child dialogue bubbles
  • Activity section, nursery rhyme, quiz
  • Mobile-responsive design

For custom builds: python3 scripts/build_magazine.py --stories stories.json --template assets/template.html --output output/index.html

5. Serve & Share

# Local preview
python3 -m http.server 8899 -d ./output

# Public sharing (install once: brew install cloudflared)
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8899

Design Principles

  1. No scary content — only positive, wonder-inspiring stories
  2. Analogy-first — explain everything through things kids already know
  3. Emotion boundary — always clarify: computers are smart but have no feelings
  4. Parent empowerment — every story gives parents a conversation hook
  5. Audio-first — assume kids can't read; audio must stand alone
