BEIJING KIDS MEDIA LAUNCH THE FIXIES: DEVELOPING SCIENTIFIC THINKING STEM PICTURE BOOK SERIES IN CHINA

Aligned with the Chinese primary school science curriculum, the series is designed to ignite curiosity and foster foundational scientific thinking in children aged 3 and above. The books introduce scientific concepts through engaging Fixies stories and include hands-on experiments that children can do at home.

Beijing Kids Media has published the 25-book printed collection, available exclusively through new media channels, with Douyin as the primary sales platform. Following its release on September 1, the series achieved immediate commercial success, selling approximately 10,000 sets in its first week alone. Two additional sets are planned for publication later this year.

"Children today engage with stories in more dynamic ways than ever before," said Julia Nikolaeva, General Manager at Animotion Media Group. "While traditional print books remain essential, young learners respond best to content that brings concepts to life. By combining classic picture-book storytelling with the beloved universe of The Fixies, we are meeting kids where they naturally engage and making foundational STEM learning interactive, accessible, and fun with The Fixies: Developing Scientific Thinking."

This milestone builds on the strategic partnership established earlier this year between Animotion Media Group and Beijing Kids Media with the launch of The Fixies Enhanced E-Books on Tencent Video, featuring 75 interactive, animated science stories. Gong Shaohua, General Manager of Beijing Kids Media added: “Partnering with Animotion Media Group allows us to actively explore innovative publishing formats for The Fixies across China. Translating this world-class IP into specialized print collections and digital screen experiences expands how families interact with the brand, and the promising launch sales for The Fixies: Developing Scientific Thinking serve as yet another proof of our shared success."

This continued achievement highlights a powerful synergy between high-quality publishing and character-driven storytelling, where engaging book collections bring learning to life for young readers. As Animotion Media Group and Beijing Kids Media deepen their collaboration, both organizations look forward with great optimism to unlocking new creative possibilities, building inspiring educational journeys, and nurturing young minds together.
