HopSpots

[concept]

It was the goal to engage children in a bodily interaction while playing and learning. This was done through HopSpots, which consist of ten wireless spots, that react when pushing them, either through sound or light. I designed 20 different games that can be played within the framework of HopSpots, but many more could be developed.
