Lebanon's An-Nahar newspaper announced the launch of its new children's supplement in Beirut Tuesday.

Jarida Kids is aimed at children between ages eight and 12, and was originally thought up by Gibran Tueni, the MP and An-Nahar general manager, who was killed by a car bomb in 2005.

Tueni's ideas for the children's supplement included focusing on cultural, arts and sporting issues. Project editors Jad Harb and Elyssar Moukawem said that they hope Jarida Kids lives up to Tueni's ideals, and will be free from sectarianism or political content, focusing on issues children care about most, The Daily Star reported.

A sample issue of the supplement, which will be published in a mixture of Arabic and French, was released by Harb and Moukawem. It contained cartoons, figures and stories about the environment and nature, quizzes, sports and an advice page in which children have their questions and problems answered, according to The Daily Star.

The first edition will be published Dec. 6, after which editions will be published the first Thursday of each month.
