Drawing & planning & Designing the prototypes

After Anni presentation about design, reading research about TOT (Toy of Things) smart toys for kids and taking inspiration from different shapes and materials who use for kids’ toys. We start draw our ideas, we took inspiration from one of our study findings, a technology that enables draw something and at the same time makes music sound, base on the the movement of the pen. We know base on research about our target audience (kids 3-5) that drawing is the one of the activities they like the most, and their way to communicate with the world. Due to we thought about combine drawing and singing and create smart game that will include this two abilities.

Option 1

This idea is a drawing board that enables the kids edit the song they record with their parent by draw on the smart board. In other words draw their song. The scenario of the game rotation.

1) Using the microphone(which is also a pen) Sing a kid's song, base on the song playback

2) Enter "play" button and start draw

3) Enter on the "play" button again and listen the song after editing it.

The editing will make the song funny by changing the voice of the singers (kids & parents).

Option 2

Here we try to used mental model of game's console, that enable the kids editing the song by touching the screen. The touching direction changes the sound of the singers voice, touching the upper part of the screen changes the sound to be higher and touching the bottom of the screen changes the voice sound being lower.
