We’re excited to share that Evren Yiğit, MakoKids Co-Founder and Chief Content Officer, was featured on the latest episode of the Wide Walls Podcast, where she opened up about her passion for creating meaningful content for children. In this heartfelt conversation, Evren talked about what makes working in children’s media so special and why she finds it “addictive.”
Evren described the unmatched joy of seeing the world through the eyes of children—their boundless curiosity, the spark of excitement when they engage with a story, and how they take that story and make it their own. She explained how creating content for children is more than just work; it’s a journey filled with wonder, creativity, and constant learning. “When you create for children, you’re not just telling a story; you’re inviting them to co-create, to add their imagination and make it come alive,” Evren shared.
During the podcast, she also touched on how cultural sensitivity and social behaviour change play a role in our work and the exciting potential AI has to complement creative efforts while keeping ethical considerations front and centre.
