In child’s life play has an important role to improve their linguistic, psychological, motor, and psycho emotional skills. The project aims towards creating a play based on Science principles, which is fun, engaging and involves learning. Amongst various topics Optics was selected, based on the need and scope to create play out of it.

The play had to incorporate hands-on activities that would allow children to strategies and explore, with different elements that actively engages children. This would involve puzzles, challenges and games that require them to apply optics principles to solve problems and complete tasks.The game is focused towards engaging children to think with an understanding of basic optics principles, learn different strategies that they would employ to win the game, and also to make them think in two and three dimensional spaces. The play is aimed towards learning at school, it also can be used by the parents while homeschooling their children. The targeted users are the students of class 6th,7th and 8th which is the age group of 11-13 years.

The idea was to explore and look for various ways in which the play can be enhanced, in a way that the play accommodates different concepts of optics. Due attention was given to make the play more intuitive, which would make it easy to start and navigate as they play.
