Design Process

Brainstorming

Persona type: Senior Infants | Target audience

Name: Marco

Age: 5

Education: preschool

Marco is an imaginative boy, who is a model toy collector. He loves to play with his “collections” and makes up different stories. Last year, his father brought him a Play-Doh set, and he started to create his characters in his stories.

Motivation

Marco is longing for bringing the creators he made to live, move or even talk to him. He also wants to share his stories with his parents and his friends, or even collaborates with them to creates the stories.

The app needs to be engaging to hold his attention. Interaction should be simple, but tasks in the game should be challenging and cooperative, so he has a sense of achievement and an opportunity to play with his parents and peers. By doing this, the app aims to develop children's abilities of imagination and collaboration.
