ABSTRACT

With the continuous development of society and the continuous popularization of children's education, people pay more attention to children's training at this stage. Children aged 3-6 years belong to early childhood. During this period, children's body and mind are in a state of continuous development. Children's toys can actively guide children to understand things and help improve their physical and mental development. Based on the KANO model, this study understands the needs of users for toys at this stage, so as to combine the research methods of perceptual engineering to establish a connection between the product's perceptual semantics and the sample library, and finally summarizes the toy design needs suitable for children aged 3-6 years, providing relevant ideas for relevant designers, so that it is desirable to design and develop toys more conducive to children aged 3-6 years.
