About Hair Salon Dyreleke
Teamet har designet fire søte dyreformer, slik at barn kan lære om forskjellige dyr og skape ulike frisyrer for dem for å utvikle sine kreative ferdigheter. Teamet har laget en stor trykkplate på undersiden av dyrene, slik at barn enkelt kan betjene leken. Barn må plassere deigen inne i dyreleken, og ved å presse vil hår av deig bli presset ut og kan klippes. Deig er et materiale som kan gjenbrukes. I tillegg egner leken seg godt for å leke sammen med andre, som venner og foreldre, og skaper mye moro ved å lage morsomme frisyrer.

- 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.
