About Hair Salon Жывёла Цацка

Каманда распрацавала чатыры мілыя формы жывёл, каб дзеці маглі навучыцца разумець розных жывёл і ствараць розныя прычоскі, каб развіць свае ўласныя навыкі рукадзелля. Каманда зрабіла вялікую плошчу прыціскной пласціны на дне жывёл, каб дзеці маглі лёгка працаваць. Дзецям трэба пакласці цеста ў цацку-жывёлу, і пры сцісканні валасы з цеста будуць выціскацца і абразацца. Цеста - гэта матэрыял, які можна выкарыстоўваць паўторна. Акрамя таго, цацка падыходзіць для гульні з іншымі людзьмі, такімі як сябры і бацькі, і стварае масу задавальнення, робячы пацешныя валасы.

Production Technology: The material of this toy is plastic and is made by injection molding.
Design Challenge: Taking leading the growth of children's aesthetics as the project mission, the toy that integrates art (Art), games (Play) and imagination (Think), and is committed to children's aesthetic toys and aesthetic education. 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.
