Ludico is an explorative educational tool, designed for children’s modern playing sessions performed in public spaces and institutions, such as schools or museums.
This project has different outcomes:
It’s a large-scale set of building parts and pieces, to joint together to create an endless variety of playful and colorful structures, to play in, on and around.
It’s an opensource website with a collection of challenges, to use as invitations for play.
It’s an educational method, with principles, tips and guidelines to maximise the playful experience.
By 2030, it is predicted that 825 million children —half of today’s youth generation— will reach adulthood without the skills they need to thrive in work and life.
Recent studies have shown and confirmed that playing has a central role in learning and preparing children for challenges later on. There’s a link between play and identity, as children carry many forms of play into their adult behaviour.
This project aims to make use of the playing time as a base for teaching and learning the so-called 21st century skills that children need in order to address the challenges they will face in the future, regardless of where they live.
