Zoo Sweets X ACE

As part of a live project with ACE in Southampton, I created an educational toy for children with special needs, based on the theme of sweets. Inspired by the colourful animal-shaped Haribo sweets, I designed a tactile “ Busy Book “. Each page features a bold animal, a simple activity to support motor and cognitive skills, a star to collect, and the corresponding Makaton symbol to aid communication. The book encourages independent or group play, combining fun with therapeutic value. It’s an engaging, inclusive tool to support occupational therapy through playful learning.
