ASD Children Educational Kit

Saturday, 29 August 2026

Dwarfs

Dwarfs is an educational kit for children with autism spectrum disorder aged six to twelve who study in ordinary schools. The kit consists of an Emoboard and small blocks called Emobjects. A social worker guides the play. The child looks at an Emobject, touches it and places it on the Emoboard, which then plays a sound linked to a negative emotion. The child guesses the emotion and checks the answer cards, then selects another Emobject that soothes it. Sight, touch and hearing are used to support emotion expression and control and to encourage communication.

Curious Gastronaut

The Curious Gastronaut is a card game that invites children and families to explore food through play. Following prompts on illustrated cards, players gather ingredients, combine them into bite-size edible experiments, name them and examine them with all five senses. Recipes and reactions are then rated and recorded. The game can be played with real food or purely through imagination, in solo, collaborative or competitive modes. No specific dishes are named, so players invent from the ground up. The compact box suits small hands and travel.

triX

triX is a modular connectable toy for children aged four and above. The toy is built around a hexagonal three-dimensional grid, so forms can be extended in any direction. Six elements are used: straight and curved extensions, three axis and four axis nodes, links and caps. A small number of parts can encourage creativity and support spatial thinking and motor skills. Ambiguous printed symbols help children express emotions and build characters, because each symbol changes meaning with rotation and placement. Group play can also support social skills.

Tetra

Tetra is an amusing color marker with interactive building toys for kids and the idea of tetra marker is not only encourage children to be creative but encourage them to reuse the marker rather than simply discarding these into the trash after the ink dried up and this will help kids to develop and raise awareness of reuse among them. The shape of a tetra cap makes it easy to press and pull out. Kids can put each cap and pen barrel together to form a shape and explore to build a new abstract shape and it’s up to their imagination bend the rule and come up with new structures.
