Questionnaires, this will
help find out what people
my age had as toys when
they were younger and
what colours and
patterns they want
Going into toy stores and
looking at what toys are in
store at the moment and
look to see what people
are buying
Pictures of toys in
shops both online
and in store
Target Market
For children between
the ages of 3- 9 years
old
Parents of young children
that are looking for toys,
gifts and presents for the
child
Cost and budget
The cost of the product is
going to be around £20
The budget for the
product is going to be
£15
I don't have to eet a specific
price range but I want the
budget to be around £15 as i
want a profit
Skills and equipment
I will need to know how to
make a pattern piece. This
means that I would need a
steady hand while cutting
and sewing together the toy.
I will need scissors,
needles, pins , a sewing
machine to construct the
toy and patterned or plain
fabric, beads, buttons etc..
for the componants on the
toy
safety
This product has to be safe
for the child to play with this
means no choke hazards
and loose
The beads and buttons would
have to be securly sewn and
there cannot be any pins left in
as they might stab thems selves
with it
Quality control
I will not have raw
edges on the product
that I can see
It will be pinned and
tacked to ensure it will not
move around while sewing
it.
Constuction
I will write out a method using
another one as a guidelines and
then I make the proto-type I will
know if I have to change the order
I will use a range of
different techniques in
order to get the best
looking product and a
cleaner finish
Colour schemes and influences
The colours I will use will
range from white to orange for
a contast and I'm thinking
about also use deep reds and
oranges for a burnt orange
look. I might use creams and
browns to do patterns.
