The Design
About Blocs Intummy Lernspielzeug
„Blocs in tummy“ wurde geschaffen, um das Konzept zu vermitteln, dass jeder Zugang zu sicheren und ausreichenden Nahrungsmitteln hat. Der Hauptzweck besteht darin, Vorschulkinder über Hunger aufzuklären und zu lernen, ihr Bewusstsein für Nahrungsmittelknappheit zu schärfen. Geometrische Essensblöcke können unter Kindern geteilt werden, um sie mithilfe eines illustrierten Geschichtenbuchs in den leeren Magen der Puppen zu füllen, um die Wahrnehmung des Essensteilens und der Wertschätzung von Essen zu fördern.
