Joyful parent-children

This is my MFA final thesis project. I picked a children's concentration issue as my thesis topic. By finding a topic to target on one, and then starting to research, gathering data, analyzing data, and coming up with a scope of the solutions, the whole process takes several months.

​

​

​

The significance of improving children’s concentration—
The feasibility of enhancing children's concentration through interactive graphic design strategies 

Key Words:  

Children’s brain and psychology, Children education, Parenting style, Relationship (Parent-child), Interactive graphic strategy intervention

There are three main sections in which I did a deep analysis. Children's brain science, the relationship between parent and child, and playful parenting. Especially the children's brain science is the root of the whole project would be formed. After a deep understanding of these three sections, my goal is to use a graphic perspective to integrate these three points in a positive loop to maintain healthy development in the long run.

Play is children's nature and way to interact in the world around them. Playful parenting will attune with children, which connect with the child to communicate effectively.

Since the idea was to highlight the relationship between parents and children, I started to visualize the concept by the kangaroo. So I designed and drew all the figures which will be applied in the design to keep visual consistency. See the sketching process below: 👇👇👇
