ABSTRACT

The origin and principles of parent-child toy design are deeply rooted in the needs of modern families and the characteristics of children's psychological development. With the acceleration of the pace of life, parent-child interaction has become particularly precious, so parent-child toys have emerged as an important medium to enhance family emotions. When designing parent-child toys, we must first follow the principles of children's psychological development. Children of different age groups have different cognitive and emotional needs, and toys should be able to stimulate their curiosity, creativity, and desire for exploration. At the same time, emphasis should be placed on the elements of parent-child interaction, making toys a bridge for parents and children to participate together, enhancing mutual understanding and trust. Safety is the core principle of parent-child toy design. Toy materials should be non-toxic and environmentally friendly to ensure the health of children. In addition, the structure and form of toys should also avoid potential dangers such as sharpness and fragility, ensuring the safety of children during play. Innovation and fun are also indispensable. By incorporating modern technological elements, we can create more innovative and interesting toy forms to satisfy children's curiosity and exploratory desires, allowing them to enjoy fun while playing, and also feel the care and companionship of parents.
