This zine focuses on the developmental stage of 9-year-olds, typically in the 4th grade. At this age, children experience significant growth across multiple domains of physical, cognitive, social, emotional, and artistical. They are industrious, intellectually curious, and increasingly aware of the world around them, often asking deep questions about fairness, justice, and their role in society. Social dynamics become more complex as peer relationships grow in importance, while their artwork evolves to include greater detail, realism, and emotional expression.
