Chickadee (stylized as chickaDEE) is a Canadian children's magazine. It was founded in 1979 as a spin-off of OWL Magazine geared towards younger readers. Its headquarters is in Toronto.
Originally focused on science and nature, the magazine, aimed at kids aged six to nine, has gradually become a more general-purpose children's magazine.
The magazine was published by the Young Naturalist Foundation. In 1997, chickaDEE (as well as sister publications OWL and Chirp) was purchased by Bayard Canada, which also owns a number of French-language children’s magazines, including Les Débrouillards and Les Explorateurs.
