Lifespan and Development Toy Project Erick Dominguez Section- 300 Infancy Stage: Toy : The Hug 'n Glow Moon is a toy designed for infants. Shaped like a crescent moon it features material with built in LED lights that softly light up when hugged or squeezed. The toys surface includes textures, like satin, crinkly fabric to provide tactile stimulation for babies. It also plays calming sounds such as rain or ocean waves when activated aiming to offer comfort and reassurance. Purpose: This toy acts as a soothing companion for infants offering both engagement and emotional support. Its gentle lights and soft textures engage babies senses while the tranquil sounds help create an atmosphere that promotes trust and security during their development stages. Sensorimotor Stage: Piaget's stage of sensorimotor development focuses on how babies explore the world using their senses and actions. The "Hug 'n Glow Moon" toy encourages this exploration by offering textures that help babies learn about touch and sensory experiences, which, in turn aids in their growth. By interacting with the toys surfaces babies can develop an understanding of tactile sensations helping them integrate sensory information and grasp more about their surroundings. Trust vs. Mistrust Stage: Erikson's stage of trust versus mistrust stresses the significance of establishing trust with caregivers and the environment. The comforting elements of the toy like its materials and calming sounds play a role in nurturing this trust and creating a feeling of safety

for babies. Studies have indicated that infants who receive loving and attentive care are more likely to form attachments laying a foundation for healthy emotional and social development. Early Childhood: Toy: In Childhood education kids play with a toy known as the Magic Builder Blocks. These blocks are colorful and see through, with magnets inside them. When kids put them together small LED lights light up making patterns and designs. The blocks come in shapes and sizes allowing children to build all kinds of things. Purpose: The goal of the Magic Builder Blocks is to inspire creative play while helping kids develop their motor skills and understanding of space. By building structures and exploring how the magnets work children learn to take charge of what they create, boosting their confidence and sense of accomplishment. Preoperational Stage: Piaget's stage of development highlights the significance of using symbols and engaging in play. The Magic Builder Blocks facilitate this, by offering materials that encourage exploration and imaginative thinking. By constructing structures children participate in play, where they symbolize real life objects and situations crucial for their cognitive and socio emotional growth. Autonomy vs. Shae and Doubt: Erikson's phase of autonomy versus shame and doubt underscores the value of nurturing independence and self assurance in kids. The Magic Builder Blocks foster autonomy, self expression and a sense of accomplishment as children explore arrangements and designs. Upon completing a structure children feel a sense of pride reinforcing their confidence in their abilities while diminishing any feelings of shame or doubt. School Age:
