普象-让好设计发光

Toys that elicit positive emotions have the potential to spark children’s learning through play. LARVA is an enchanting toy storage trolley with a captivating cartoon design. Its distinct shape, expressive features, and vibrant colours are deliberately designed to capture the attention of children. With its intriguing smile, large mouth, white teeth, and larva-like body shape, LARVA effortlessly entices children to place or toss their toys into the trolley.

LARVA's clear functionality is intended to foster children’s organisational and sorting habits. It has a profound impact on their emotional, physical, and cognitive development. Emotionally, tidying becomes a delightful and sentimental experience as it weaves a narrative of bringing toys home, thereby strengthening communication between children and their parents. Physically, LARVA allows for a variety of play activities such as pulling, pushing, and even riding on, thereby improving children’s motor skills.

The transparent body of LARVA allows for visibility of the toys when in storage, while its portability encourages children to take it with them wherever they go. Furthermore, by placing and retrieving toys from different positions, children can develop their spatial orientation, including a comprehensive understanding of directions like front, back, left, and right.
