It’s designed for preschool children with visual impairments. Inspired by construction toys, its main feature is “assembly,” which fosters spatial awareness and reasoning. We discovered that the way animal bodies are assembled is similar to how maps are divided, with corresponding front, back, left, and right sections. By exploring these tactile animal building blocks, children grasp map information and area distribution, helping them develop orientation skills and spatial concepts.
