DESIGN NAME: Aquarius
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Toy Kit
INSPIRATION: Fitting thousands of fish species into one little fishbowl; and taking this fishbowl wherever you go has been the key inspiration for this project.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Aquarius is a 40 pieced game set for kids above the age of 5. The set consists of various body parts of fish which offer several stylized options. These parts can be classified as 7 heads, 5 eyes, 7 bodies, 10 fins, 5 spines and 6 tails. The sets can be extended by increasing the number of parts per set for different age groups. The system has a vast development capacity with new extra parts.
The chosen materials that are in accordance with international regulations make the product hygienic and all body parts are washable; therefore, the parents feel at ease.
Aquarius stimulates the children’s imagination via giving possibilities to design creative and characterized fish. The interchangeable assembly of body parts enables the toy kit to have an extended play period by grabbing the attention of the child with a wide variety of transformations. Learning how to play is quick, and playing is very simple. The principle aim being the improvement of children in many ways, some of the crucial targets are having the children develop simple abstraction and visual techniques, supporting basic learning skills and color information, helping to maintain development in 3D recognitions and form convertibility and enhancing basic hand skills.
In addition to these features, this game set will make bathing a more fun experience for kids. This toy set will serve as a mode analyzer for children with psychological problems. Moreover, the game will take an important part in the role playing games that children of this age often play. And last but not least, via the game, the love for animals is enhanced.
