But above all, fun is the primary objective of play. Fun is what makes them come back for more, makes them learn and remember. Another crucial factor is eco-friendliness.
Some of the best pro-environment design processes can actually be found in the Indian handicrafts industry. One such example is the lathe-turned toy craft of Channapatna, a town near Bengaluru. The age old craft uses wood and colours made completely from natural materials like turmeric, kumkum, indigo, etc. Creating modern designs based on such conventional techniques opens up a new range of products that are unique, educational and organic.
