Ayn for kids represents comprehensive knowledge environment: Information minister affirms

Muscat: Dr. Abdullah Nasser Al Harrasi, Minister of Information has affirmed that the Ministry of Information’s launch of the Kids’ Interface on Ayn platform is inspired by the vision of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik and his dedication to nurturing Omani children and developing their potential.

In a press statement, he said: “This is a strategic step toward creating meaningful media content for children, who represent a vital part of Oman’s future. This interface is not just a source of entertainment, but a comprehensive learning space that supports the psychological, educational, and moral needs of Omani children, while staying aligned with global digital developments.”

He added: “Today’s children are active contributors to knowledge and the future. That’s why the Kids’ Interface was designed to provide content that speaks their language, sparks curiosity, and strengthens Omani identity and values. It features illustrated stories, simple educational programs, and engaging audiovisual materials that help develop thinking, language, and communication skills in an age-appropriate and appealing way.”

“We believe that building a strong society starts in childhood. The interface offers a safe, enjoyable alternative that connects children to their heritage, their identity, and life in Oman. Looking ahead, we plan to expand its features by adding interactive educational games that support creative and innovative learning,” pointed out Dr. Abdullah.

He concluded: “We are committed to continuously developing the platform in collaboration with experts in childhood, education, digital media, and pedagogy. Our goal is to make it a national initiative that brings together families, educators, and communities — helping raise a generation that contributes to Oman’s growth and advancement.”
