The children in the Kindergarten (5’s) were curious about everything. In fact, they were willing to do some pretty gross things out of sheer curiosity. While playing with a little device known as a zoomy (a device that showed a zoomed-in version of anything they put it on), a lot of children boldly put it in their mouths, in their friends’ mouths, on their stomachs and anything else they could touch. My first reaction to this as an adult was ‘Ack! They’ll get sick! Someone needs to stop them’. That’s when I realized how far children are willing to go to learn more about their environments and how differently their minds work from ours. Linking this back to our project, it’ll be very important for all of us to constantly test our project out with children, because there’s no doubt that they’ll end up interacting with our projects in ways which we rational and boring adults, would never even think of.
