Have you ever seen a child crying and asking you why their favourite CD’s don’t play anymore? CDs are a vulnerable medium suffering from scratches when children are handling them. We run crazy sorting CDs into their cases and replacing non-working ones. By the way, don’t expect a toddler to successfully use a CD player from the very beginning.
The idea of the Put’n’Play Cube was born…by ripping the children songs or radio plays and storing them on a MP3 player. The goal was to make the use of the toy as intuitive as possible, with a minimum number of buttons, portable and cheap, as small as possible and with an innovative interaction to trigger the songs they want to play. Further, we insisted from the very beginning to allow a personalised design of the player and the freedom to use any beloved characters or items of the kids in order to trigger the right song.
