Magical Eco House

Magical Eco House

We have created a unique puzzle for the whole family which will not only be a fun project but also is a multi-purpose educational toy. Our eco house can be used as a home décor; also we have installed a senor based sanitizer and tissue box keeping in mind the current world situation. It can be also used as a To-do list planner, mini kitchen garden.

If we go back to how and when puzzles originated; it started with jigsaw puzzles, John Spilsbury, an engraver and mapmaker from London invented the first jigsaw puzzle in 1767. First puzzle was a map of the world. Children’s puzzles have moved from just being used for lessons to a source of entertainment, showing diverse subjects like animals, nursery rhymes, and modern tales of superheroes.

In 1909, Parker Brothers devoted their entire factory to manufacturing puzzles. In 1933 sales reached an astounding 10 million per week. The introduction of die-cut cardboard puzzles was another turning point in the production of puzzles, especially since inexpensive cardboard allowed manufacturers to mass produce puzzles.

Puzzles can help children develop their cognitive skills. As puzzles come in a whole range of themes and topics such as alphabets, shapes, animals, and colors, these themes and topics increase children’s visual awareness and develop their understanding of them. Puzzles can also help develop someone’s problem solving skill. For a solver to complete a puzzle, the solver must think of different strategies on how to approach the problem or the puzzle at hand in order to achieve a certain goal.

Solving puzzles also helps in developing hand-eye coordination. When children flip, turn, or remove pieces of the puzzle, they are then learning the connection between their hands and their eyes. Their eyes see the problem or the puzzle, and the brain works on how to solve it. Puzzles also help improve the vocabulary, memory, and overall reasoning and raise someone’s Intelligence Quotient or IQ.

Current scenario is leading our world towards destruction of its natural resources which will adversely affect the life-cycle and lead to extinction of every species. We need to step up as individuals and change how we exploit our resources and how to save them for a better and safe future. One of the contribution leading adverse effect on environment is from plastic toys which are non biodegradable and can be found anywhere around the globe, be it ocean or land.

380 million tons of plastic waste is annually generated across the globe, of which 90.5% plastic waste goes un- recycled which leads to 1.8 billion metric tons of CO2 released into environment. If you want know more about plastic waste please click here

United Nation sustainability Goals


Following the footsteps of the United Nations 17 Sustainability Goals we have come up with bio-degradable educational block puzzle which is made from scrap materials such as certified wood, brass, cellulose board, cork sheet and we have specifically used eco friendly vegetable tanned premium leather which is not dipped in chromium to reduce the carbon footprint and bio-degradable which will lead to sustainable future hence taking baby steps towards a better future which is more towards the nature and its importance in Human life. As our educational toy is handmade, the carbon footprint is negligible, our factory average footprint is 1.21 metric tons, which equates to 1.14 metric tons per year and the average footprint for people in India is 1.73 metric tons. The average worldwide carbon footprint is about 5 metric tons and the worldwide target to combat climate change is 2 metric tons.

We are in a continuous process to reduce our carbon footprint to help lower worldwide carbon footprint less than 2 metric tons.Read more about United Nation’s sustainability Goals click here.

Materials used building our Eco house are scrap materials which we have salvaged and used it to create the Eco house puzzle, hence creating a small bubble of a zero waste community.

All the materials which are left while creating the Eco House are then used again to create miniature stuffed animal plush toys, Tic Tac Toe elements, slipper stick-on’s and other elements, hence maintaining a Zero Waste Community. Read more about Zero Waste Community click here.

Giving Back To Nature

We have been exploiting our natural resource for a very long time and now it is time to stop and start giving back to nature by consciously using natural resources, aiming not to rely on synthetic products and by using more biodegradable products.

We at Shape Of Life have taken steps towards saving our nature by using bio-degradable materials to create our range of products and we are also giving plant seeds with our Eco House for you to plant in the mini kitchen garden. We have also created a cracker shaped planter which is biodegradable and can be planted directly and watch a toy becoming a plant. Read more about Nature click here.

Materials Used: Wall Panels, Boxes, Beaks

Our wall panels are created by using cellulose board as the base material and cellulose board is made with waste papers, cardboard and wood shavings, and we use vegetable tanned leather to wrap the outer walls, the inner walls are wrapped with cork sheet and the leather used is not coated with harmful chromium which makes it toxic and hard to decompose.
Beaks are created by melting old scrap brass and shaping it into a brass beak, also scrap aluminum is melted into a leak proof box for keeping liquid. If you want know more about Materials Used please click here

Testimonial

We enjoyed solving this puzzle with my daughter to create a multipurpose Eco House, strengthening the bond with my daughter and creating a unique multipurpose home décor with a sensor based sanitizer considering the current scenario.

Our pre-cut wall panels are in different shapes and have different cuts to join different panels and create the Eco House. Kids can learn different types of shapes and how to solve the puzzle and increase problem solving skills of your kids.

Pre-cut wall panels are more environmentally friendly in actual home construction which is technically called Prefabricated Architect. Prefab helps in reducing up to 52% of onsite construction site wastage, also it reduces project completion period, and it reduces power consumption up to 70% of daily energy consumption.

Showcasing our Eco house sensor based sanitizer mechanics, where we have used a senor which is connected to the motor which is kept inside a sealed aluminum box. When the sensor gets activated it turns on the motor which pulls the liquid and transfers it to the beak of our bird.

Your kid can learn how gravity, kinetic energy, potential energy works. When any object comes near the sensor, it sends the signal to the motor which then pushes the liquid through the pipe, Potential Energy stored in the water starts increasing and it reaches its maximum, when it reaches to the beak, at this point, Kinetic Energy of water is at its minimum. Gravitational Force always acts downwards, so, because of the Gravitational force the water starts falling from the beak and the Kinetic Energy of water starts increasing till it reaches the surface. If you want to read more about Importance Of Educational Toys click here.
