The Design
About Habitat Pedagogisk lekekloss
Habitat er et sett med pedagogiske leken klosser laget for førskolebarn. Klossene viser hvordan klimaendringer skader økosystemer og oppmuntrer til tidlig bevissthet om økologisk vern. To omgivelser er inkludert: en smeltende isbre og en avskoget skog. Barna finner problemene, gjenoppbygger miljøet og fører dyrene tilbake til habitatene deres. Klossene er laget av korkbark, slik at ingen trær felles under produksjonen. Kork er antistatisk og motstår støv. Gradienter i form og farge gir mulighet for åpen, fri stabling.

- Research
- Research Type: Team Teaching - Science, Art, Mathematics
Objective: To learn and understand the effects of climate change and the habits of daily life
Methods:To collect the causes, effects, mitigation and adaptation measures of climate change.Based on the analysis of commercial toys, this paper classifies the suitable play methods for children's age development, and analyzes the quality of toys, aiming at sustainable materials.A questionnaire was designed to investigate the environmental problems and improve the environment of children by interviewing with teachers.
Data collection: climate change-related data analysis, 3-6 years old teaching toy market analysis, mass lifestyle analysis, early childhood teachers' opinions analysis.
Research tools: Rhinoceros 3D, Solidworks, Adobe Illustrator, procreate. - Inspiration
- According to the United Nation called for Sustainable Development Goals, two climate change issues namely the melting of arctic glaciers and over-deforestation of the Amazon rainforest, it brings out the seriousness of ecological damage cause by human, eventually global temperature rise, starvation, extinction of species. Let children learn and understand the effects of climate change to daily life, to develop their environmental concerns and habits from an early age education see its urgency.
- Project Duration
- The project began in August 2022 and was completed in Tainan, Taiwan in March 2023.
