AN OVERVIEW

Our team was briefed to create a prototype designed for kids, inspired by design history.  

In an age where technology is incorporated in almost every part of our lives, a child needs less noise, not more. From this, we concluded that a kids toy needs to be playful, vibrant, and versatile. Meaning that it does not serve one purpose, but many, allowing kids to develop and grow with the toy. 

With these parameters, we created Core Cube. An easily constructed wooden box of panels for four to six year olds, each with textures or activities on them to help child development. These panels are selected by the parents based on what sensories or activities would best suit their child's needs. However, not only do these panels have activities on them, but they are also used to build new structures, sparking creativity and curiosity. 

Combined, these elements allow children to think beyond what is immediately given to them, giving them the opportunity to grow further than before.
