Peer Ponder Play - Designing Learning Tools for Curious Young Minds.
Peer Ponder Play is a growing collection of children's activity books. After the success of Volume 1, CPB Prism and Atom collaborated once again to create Volume 2. This second volume was designed for schools funded by Ashok Leyland's RTE, focusing on themes of observing and understanding people, places, and society. The project included activity sheets for students and a comprehensive guide for teachers.
Goal: To create a handbook that teachers can use easily without feeling overwhelmed by complex instructions.
What is special about what we did?
The activities in the book encourage students to use naturally available resources from their surroundings to foster interactivity, curiosity, and creativity while reducing waste. We designed the book in a mixed-media format, combining different textures, materials, cutouts, and hand-drawn illustrations to help visualize the outcomes in a relatable format.
Instructions include visual aids and suggested outcomes for each activity, helping teachers—even those with less experience—better understand the process and guide students toward the intended learning and results.
