Description

Paper Block Play Equipment { PAPER BLOCK PLAYING APPARATUS }

The present invention relates to play equipment and to paper block play equipment.

In general, infants or children learn social knowledge and social skills through play, and various play equipment has been developed for this purpose.

There are various types of blocks as the play equipment. Blocks have a wide variety of shapes from tetrahedrons to polyhedrons, and infants or children can play various games by arranging these various shapes in the right place. For example, it is possible to make a shape of a building through the block, and can make a shape of a driving body such as a car or a tank. That is, infants or children can break away from flat play and strengthen their spatial perception ability through three-dimensional play.

However, since most of the block play equipment is made of synthetic resin, toxic substances may be included, and when discarded, it does not rot easily, so there is a problem of environmental pollution.

Recently, blocks have been manufactured using wood, an eco-friendly material, as an alternative to synthetic resins. However, since they are individually cut into blocks and formed, they are expensive and difficult to process compared to synthetic resins that can be mass-produced by putting them in a mold.

Although durability is inferior to synthetic resin or wood, blocks using eco-friendly paper have been developed and popular because they are easier to process, have lower manufacturing costs, and rot easily even if discarded after use.

On the other hand, paper toys or paper craft can be used to produce various types of creatures such as historical figures, ancient ruins and buildings, and insects using paper, thereby improving the educational and learning effects of children.

However, since paper toys and paper craft simply play a role like a doll, spatial perception ability and creativity can be improved in the manufacturing process, but it is difficult to expect various educational learning effects because it is limited to playing with dolls except for the production process. .
