Parmaks
This game uses communication and self reflection in order to educate children and strengthen the bond between them and their families. It is a toy for toddlers around the age of four, and is designed to give them the tools to learn how to identify their feelings and emotions; it promotes emotional learning by helping children to recognise and internalise the different moods that they experience throughout their day.
PARMAKS is not just a communication tool, but an interactive toy made by hand using beech wood. Each thimble is a character that represents a feeling: joy, laughter, fear, shame and sadness (the basic pack). This range can be expanded through a collection of personalised packs containing other emotions. Each character has its own unique shape and color to be easily identified.
