About GrowForest Dèideag Ionnsachaidh Foghlaim
A ’cuideachadh clann le bhith a’ tuigsinn amasan leasachadh seasmhach beatha air fearann, dìon, glèidhteachas agus ath-nuadhachadh coilltearachd. Modail craobhan co-ionann ri gnèithean fiodha dachaigheil Taiwan de acacia, cedar incense, Tochigi, fir Taiwan, craobh camphor, agus giuthas Àisianach. Suathadh blàth air inneach fiodha, fàileadh sònraichte gach gnè craoibhe, agus an talamh àrd airson diofar ghnèithean craoibhe. Tha leabhar sgeulachd le dealbhan a ’cuideachadh le bhith a’ doimhneachadh clann le bun-bheachd glèidhteachas coille, ag ionnsachadh eadar-dhealachaidhean eadar gnèithean craoibhe Taiwan, a ’toirt bun-bheachd coilltean glèidhteachais leis an leabhar dhealbhan.

- This is a set of educational learning toys for children, helping them to understand sustainable development goals of life on land, the protection, conservation and restoration of forestry. Using Taiwan domestic woods of acacia, incense cedar, Tochigi, Taiwan fir, camphor tree, and Asian fir to make up as tree model. Children can feel the warm touch of wooden texture, smell the unique scent of each tree species, knowing the altitude terrain for different tree species. Besides, an illustrated story book help to deep root children the concept of forest conservation.

- Production Technology
- Material: Taiwan domestic wood:acacia, incense cedar, Tochigi, Taiwan fir, camphor tree, and Asian fir. Production technology: CNC milling, lathe, manual polishing. Surface contact: baking paint uses environmentally friendly paint, and some retain the wood texture of wood.
- Design Challenge
- The density of a certain kind of wood is different, and some shapes cannot be made by CNC processing, which needs to be made by hand. The paint of different wood colors is slightly different than expected. In order to achieve the contour shapes and colors we wanted, the team tried and made many mistakes and finally came up with a good solution.
- Research
- Type of research: The four senses of learning, smell, sight and touch. Goal: Recognize wood and conservation concepts. Methods: Morphological analysis, wood material analysis, toy type size analysis. Data collection: market research and toy analysis for children aged 2 to 5 years. research tools: Solid Works, KeyShot.
- Inspiration
- The forests cover more than 30% of the earth's surface, due to climate change, excessive forest rafting and bushfires, global forests are facing an unprecedented severe crisis. Large-scale deforestation has drastically reduced the forest area that brings great impact to forest ecology. In echo to United Nation SGDs15, developed a set of educational learning toys to enhance children consciousness on the protection, conservation and restoration of the forestry and terrestrial ecology.
- Project Duration
- The project began in July 2019 and was completed in Tainan, Taiwan in March 2020.
- Operation Flow
- The teaching aids with conservation forest as the core, using assembly methods, first recognize the changes in terrain and altitude, then recognize the different species of trees in Taiwan, and use picture books to guide children into the context to play with toys. Learn through four senses-hearing, smell, vision, and touch. Children feel everything in the forest, and understand the forest from childhood education, and strengthen the concept of natural ecological conservation.
