Tangible Story - Idea(3):

Building a touchable tale for kids is a way to encourage them to learn different things. Kids sometimes don’t like to sit and read a story peacefully; they prefer doing activities and adventures. This project designed to achieve this goal, kids will be able to do things as well as listening and reading. It is an excellent method to develop their intellectual skills. 

Hardware List:

• ELEGOO UNO R3
• Bare conductive touch board (might not be needed)
• Solid wire
• Soldering wire
• Jumper wires
• Copper foil tape
• PCB boards (different sizes)
• Power adapter
• LEDs
• Audios
• Speakers
• Buttons/ other creative switches(puzzle, zipper, etc.) 
• Servos
• Stepper motors
• Fans 
• Filament (for 3D printer to build some of the structure)
• Papers, fabrics, threads, conductive painting, wires, etc. (crafting some of the structure)

Software List:

• Arduino 1.8.10

Project Plan:

Week 10 (final decisions and purchasing): 

• Decide what the concept of the story will be
• Purchase all the materials
• Design things that need to be 3D printed

Week 11 (start coding the first part and testing):

• Build the LEDs codes as well as decide what are the methods that will be used  

1. Lighting race
2. RGB
3. Blinking lights
4. On / Off lights 

• Choose the movements that I want to implement in the story and start building the kinetic codes 

Week 12 (start doing the audios):

• Choosing the audios as well as building their codes 

Week 13 (combining all together and testing):

• Solder things
• Which part goes into which spot
• Compile the whole story in one piece
• Print the 3D designs

Week 14 (build the final shape):

• Build the box/rug of the story (depend on what my decision will be)

Week 15 (test the whole project):

• Compile the small parts of the story inside its carrier

Week 16 (submission):

• Final touches
