Description/Abstract:

The book aimed to engage children aged 2–5 in imaginative, hands-on reading through participatory design that fosters creativity and pretend play. Early in development, a key challenge arose: creating a mechanism for fingers to interact with diverse elements like ingredients and cookware. To address this, I simplified the interaction by using a single thumb hole instead of multiples, allowing the reader to mimic various cooking actions, such as chopping veg, beating eggs, and holding utensils. This streamlined approach enhanced usability while maintaining an engaging and immersive experience.
