These toys are wooden animals with stylized shape and color. Because of this stylization, the toys support childrens imagination. The toys are designed to fit comfortably in the kids hands. The middle part consists of several identical pieces, which are connected by rubber band. This system makes the wooden toys flexible and helps the kids with practising the fine motor skills.

 

The prototypes are stylizied animals of south america – capybara, tapir and anteater. I choose these animals for the prototypes for their interesting, characteristic shape.
