The "Banban's TPR Card Reader Set" is a toy designed for children around 2.5 years old. It has one card reader and 100 TPR cards divided into six categories. The main gameplay involves inserting the cards into the machine to play audio, and then children and parents complete the tasks together.



The traditional process of learning English is tedious and uninteresting for children. This toy features engaging and fun actions combined with professional English learning content, catering to children's needs for multi-sensory stimulation. It provides an immersive language learning experience, helps develop children's motor skills, promotes effective parent-child interaction, and reduces children's screen time.



Innovative Design Points:



Multi-Sensory Interactive Learning: Utilizing the Total Physical Response (TPR) method, the toy teaches language through physical actions, aligning with children's cognitive development patterns. By combining audio instructions and illustrated cards, the toy engages children's auditory and visual senses simultaneously, enhancing the fun and effectiveness of learning.



Rich and Diverse Content: The cards cover object recognition, fine motor skills, gross motor skills, parent-child interaction, animal imitation, and nursery rhymes, comprehensively promoting children's cognitive development and physical coordination.



Ease of Use: The toy has a simple, three-dimensional geometric shape, primarily in soft green and white with accents of brand orange. By inserting different cards, children can play a range of interactive instructions and music, enabling them to independently explore a world of sounds and knowledge with just a simple card insertion. The toy is designed to be placed on a flat surface, so it doesn't need to be held during play. Once a card is inserted, it tilts slightly upward, making it easy for young users to see images and text.
