Toy Design

This toy project was designed to teach us how to manufacture, and study new manufacturing techniques, also how this can be limited when you include movement into the toy, so acknowledging various number of parts to manufacture one toy. These toys are aimed at young children and have four moveable aspects. The toys are designer to allow children to communicate, by giving each six of the toys 4 hobbies and all the toys have at least one hobby in common, so when child sees another child with one of these toys they can quickly define by using the queue cards to recognise which hobby there toys have in common which gives them a foundation for friendship.
