Dudo

Dudo is a modular synthesizer toy designed for children aged four to twelve. Dudo joins sound and light effects so that basic music theory can be learned through play. Five simple modules cover sequencing, wave change, filtering, rhythm and amplification, and nine connection methods allow expanded functions and multiplayer use. The difficulty level can be raised as children grow older. Capacitive sensing triggers drum sounds when the drum module is tapped. Non-toxic plastic is used, and the size follows the ergonomics of children.

Cooker

Cooker is a portable stove designed for outdoor picnics and camping. The gas can, ovenware, fire source and oil storage are combined within one compact body. The folding structure is inspired by the shape of a suitcase, so the stove stays light and easy to carry. Cooker is opened and closed like a case, which makes operation simple in the field. Liquefied petroleum gas is used as the fuel, giving a high combustion value without soot or odour. The design invites young people to leave the city and cook together in nature.

Yummy

Yummy is a wooden toy set that offers a restaurant simulation play experience for children. The set contains a teppanyaki plate, a cash register, wooden ingredients and wooden menus. Two or more children can play together, taking the roles of customer and chef. The chef selects ingredients according to the menu, and coloured lights show whether cooking is in progress, complete or overcooked. The customer then gives an evaluation and pays. The play sequence teaches how a restaurant works and supports hands-on, cognitive and social skills.

Trido Magnetic Art

Trido is a set of magnetic building blocks for children and adults. The blocks are based on the geometry of Platonic solids, using tetrahedron, half tetrahedron and octahedron shapes. A patented magnetic system allows every side of every shape to connect without repelling, so the pieces align along their edges. The blocks are made of ABS plastic, and the magnets are enclosed inside an inner nest. Magnetic eye pieces can be added to give a structure a face. Trido is offered in three set sizes and six colour palettes.
