A Lego-like kit with stackable, writeable surfaces that lets kids unleash their imagination! - Yanko Design

The Enso guided play kit lets children take an idea from concept to reality. The procedure begins, equally all bang-up ideas exercise, at the drawing board. The Enso kit comes with handheld tablets where kids can sketch their ideas with erasable markers. The tablets have a transparent drawing surface and are stackable, mimicking the layers of a Photoshop file. This is a feature I oasis't seen earlier in a children's toy; it encourages experimentation and collaboration.

After the ideation phase, students get to bring their drawings to life with the Enso edifice pieces. These pieces function as attachments for the principal body parts of the fine art production. Unlike standard fine art projects, which would need glue or tape, the Enso pieces don't need any adhesive. Similar to Legos, the Enso building pieces are reusable simply more versatile because they can attach to a variety of materials.

The Enso tool kit was congenital effectually the concept of fostering collaboration. Just as the product encourages children to create and experiment together, the Enso company encourages educators who purchase the production to participate in an online collaborative community. Educators who purchase Enso will also have access to an online community where they tin share their ain experiences and lesson plans. Similarly, the Enso company will too use customer feedback to design future product updates.

Some other exciting aspect of the Enso kit is its readiness for mass production. The parts are like shooting fish in a barrel to produce with a 3D printer, which means they can be manufactured speedily and at a low price. Estimates say that the Enso would price 10.10 euros to make and would sell for 33.70 — a comparable price to a 100+ piece lego set. Blueprints for the object files would also be available for auction, then schools can supplant lost pieces if they accept their own 3D printer. This year, the Enso was a Superlative 10 National Finalist for the Enterprise Ireland's Educatee Entrepreneur Awards and won "Best Design Projection 2020" from the Technological Academy Dublin. From concept to execution, this production embodies the spirit of collaboration; the versatility of its design and office may give Lego a run for its money one solar day.
