Printed Books
Being kids born into the digital era, our first introduction to books was in our preschool years, around the years of 2004 - 2007. At first we'd rather play with our consoles or watch television, but we grew to appreciate the information books provided to us back in the day when Google wasn't as prominent as it is now. -
Newspapers
Printed newspapers were common with our parents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts. We able to understand and were introduced to newspapers when we were 4 years old in the year 2005. Being born into the digital age, we did not see the usefulness of the newspaper as we'd rather watch news on TV. -
Magazines
Our introduction to magazines was in the form of the popular kids' magazine, K-Zone around 2006 - 2007. We were all very enticed by all the familiar faces of fictional characters and were instantly hooked on the magazine. -

Telephone
Our introduction to telephones happened when we were tasked to answer the phone for our parents and when we wanted to contact our friends from school in our elementary years around 2006 - 2008 -
Radio
We'd often hear our elders listening to the radio at home or in cars. This was how we were introduced to radios around 2005. The radio served as our primary source of music and news at times when the TV or newspapers weren't available. -
Television
We were introduced to TVs at a very early age and we were instantly in love with it as we were also introduced to a variety of cartoons and TV shows. This was around the year 2004 when we were 3 years old and able to comprehend what was going on in the shows.
