TinkerToys for Kids design software
Print ‘n’ play
A new design software lets children design and print their own toys from bioplastics
This is what I want my teddy to look like! When children from the age of six create their own playthings with the help of TinkerToys, there are no limits to their creativity. This new child-friendly design software enables young designers to turn their ideas into toys online. Afterwards, the toy is brought into reality with a 3D printer. By building this bridge between the analogue and digital worlds, the start-up strengthens digital skills among primary school children: they learn that the internet offers more possibilities than watching videos or chatting. All TinkerToys creations are made of a corn starch-based bioplastic and are completely biodegradable.
