Stuffed animals used to be inanimate toys that can only get moved by the humans; but now they can successfully move on their own, with the aid of the Pinoky—a small, ring-like device that wirelessly brings stuffed animals to “life”. It uses a micro controller, a Zigbee input device and a servo motor system to move an animal’s hands and legs, also with a set of photo sensors designed to measure the angle at which it bends. Thus simply pin the Pinoky onto your stuffed animals, and you will then see them move and dance automatically. Really funny, huh? You can get it as a Christmas gift for your kids.

The world’s best house for kids seems to have appeared in Japan, designed by LEVEL architects. With an integrated slide, the house not only allows people to travel from one floor to another in a quicker way, but also provides great fun when you’re enjoying the sliding game. But wait, while it seems easy to go downstairs, does that also mean we’ll take more pain in climbing upstairs?  Of course not, actually when you’re sliding down from one side of house, you’ll go through stairs on the other side to get to the higher floors.

Once viewing the world with the children’s eyes, we may realize that everything convenient to the adults are actually resulting in troubles to them: the door handle is too high to reach, the desk is too high to climb on and still the peephole is too high for them to check out who is standing outside the door… Everything seems too high to kids, thus we need to lower them down, such as designing a special peephole for children to use.

It allows the kids and adults to use peephole at the same time, and therefore cleverly solves the old problem of how children can safely open the door by checking out people on the other side. Pity that it’s merely a concept at the time, coz I really want to get one for my little niece who is curious with the world outside. But really good work, Hyun-june Yang!
