Robot Shapes Lab was developed with the help of educational psychologists.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each of the game events and elements were created with the consultation of educational psychologists in order to fit the cognitive abilities and motor skills of young children. The game was created for both individual and shared play.
It can be used by parents, caretakers and even therapists as a tool to facilitate communication with a child about his inner thoughts. While playing with a caretaker the child can share experiences and feelings about their own feelings.
