Happy Hoppers is a game design made for 4-6 year olds during Designing Games for Kids class at ITP, NYU. Game is co-designed together with Esther Hersh, Xingjian N An and Lindsey Frances. Video is made by Xingjian N An. More on the game can be found on my ITP blog http://www.itpruta.com/

This game was co-designed together with An, Lindsey, and Ruta for our Designing Games for Kids class. The game is aimed at 4-6 year olds. Our goal was to create a game that utilized an entire space and created an active and fun environment. We also wanted it to be adaptable so that it is accessible for children throughout this age range. Children who can't jump long distances can simply place the lily pads closer together, while children who can jump farther can spread them out. The game pieces are made of kid safe materials and the game can be played indoors or outdoors.
