Design

Here is a preliminary sketch on how we want our activity wall to look like (see image below).

We are thinking about having different type of holes in shapes of circles, squares, rectangles and triangles. The idea is that besides just having fun with the toy, the child should have the opportunity to learn and separate the different geometrical shape. Depending on the size of the hole, there will be different points in scale of 1 – 10.

To make it easier for the child to separate the geometrical forms we are considering using diodes around each hole. Every geometric shape is going have its own colour.

Furthermore, the design we have today consists of an on/off button on the right side of the wall and on top there will be 10 diodes representing points. For example of the child manages to score worth 1 point, 1 diode will light up, then if a 3 pointers I scored, the total score will be 1 + 3 an therefore 4 

diodes in the top will be light up. Finally, when the child reaches 10 points the counter will restart.

If we look at the design from a side perspective, we want to be in a triangular shape with a hatch so the child can go and take the balls that have been thrown.
