About Hair Salon Giocattolo Animale
Il team ha progettato quattro simpatiche forme di animali in modo che i bambini possano imparare a capire diversi animali e creare diverse acconciature per sviluppare le proprie abilità artigianali. Il team ha realizzato un'ampia area della piastra di pressione sul fondo degli animali, in modo che i bambini possano operare facilmente. I bambini devono mettere l'impasto all'interno del giocattolo animale e, attraverso la spremitura, i peli dell'impasto verranno spremuti e tagliati. L'impasto è un materiale che può essere riutilizzato. Inoltre, il giocattolo è adatto per giocare con altre persone, come amici e genitori, e crea molto divertimento facendo dei capelli divertenti.

In order to reduce fixation of children thinking, we designed four cute animal shapes. For example, children can dress the sheep toy into ewe, ram or punk sheep, so that they can freely create their own style for the toy.
- Research
- Dough is a material that is easy to shape; however, children need to create artifacts from scratch. This may make some children less motivated to play the dough. To solve this problem, we designed four cute animal shapes so children can learn to understand different animals and creative different hair styles for them to develop their own craft skills.
- Inspiration
- It is very important to cultivate children's hands-on skills. Children can dress the sheep toy into ewe, ram or punk sheep, so that they can freely create their own style for the toy. The toy is suitable for playing with other people, such as friends and parents, and creates a lot of fun by making funny hair. The dough can be reused and does not require electricity, so it is a sustainable toy.
- Project Duration
- Duration: January 2019 to January 2021.
Location: Hong Kong and Ningbo. - Operation Flow
- Since this is a new toy launched, it has already received some good responses. “My son usually gets bored after playing with toys a few times. But this dough salon toy, he can play again and again, especially during epidemics.” Children need to put the dough in the animal toy, and through squeezing, the hair will be squeezed out. Dough is a material that can be reused. The dough will dry out after a period of use, but just add a little water to restore its original elasticity. This reuse material will benefit both users and environment.
