What does good writing for children have in common across age groups?

If writing for a certain age group (of children) is attractive to you, can you try your hand at
writing for another age group? What do you think "stretching your writing legs” in this way
will help you to accomplish?

Answer:

Make it simple

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to make the story as simple as possible and d u m b everything down for the child's tiny brain. Be sure to make the characters as unrealistic as possible. A good rule of thumb is that if any of the characters in your story say anything that a normally intelligent person would say, you should not make them say that.
