Oceans Logic Game shortlisted for ‘Best Toy Design 6+ Years’
Written on 14th June, 2022It’s that exciting time of year again when children’s brands are being recognised with exciting new products launched to market. At Happy Little Doers, we are incredibly excited that our brand new Oceans Logic Game has been shortlisted for ‘Best Toy Design 6+ Years’ in the Junior Design Awards 2022.
Our Ocean Logic Game is simple… just 9 square puzzle pieces that need to connect together, edge-to-edge to form the complete puzzle. Simple? Think again…
Oceans Logic Game – Shortlisted for ‘Best Toy Design for 6+ Years’ in JDA22
A Game for the Whole Family
The puzzle game is designed to help children (and adults for that matter!) build up a variety of skills, including resilience, memory recall, problem-solving, confidence and happiness. What’s great about the game is that it is designed for all ages from 5 and upwards, including adults, and can either be played individually, with friends or with the whole family.
Our Logic Games are the perfect size to play at home or whilst travelling. Measuring, its largest size just 24cm by 24cm, it is able to be used in places that are notoriously difficult to entertain the little ones, such as planes and trains. With each piece having rounded corners, it is safe to use by children of all ages.
An Eco-friendly Children’s Game
The game is 100% eco-friendly and plastic-free, made with sustainably sourced paper stock using both vegan-friendly inks and glue. It is designed and manufactured directly in the UK, helping to minimise our carbon footprint, support small businesses and ensure we can monitor the quality of our products. The product is endorsed by The World Land Trust, a conservation charity that protects the most biologically significant and threatened habitats around the world, with patrons Sir David Attenborough, Steve Backshall, David Gower and Chris Packham. The design of the game is from our Oceans Theme, created to help promote awareness of the biodiversity in our Oceans, using illustrations of some of the incredible marine life that can be found both in the shallows and in the deep.
