Testers Needed for Prototype Activity Cards

Note Not sure if this is the right place to put this!

I'm conducting a research project at uni that involves taking the activities/games on the Change for Life website, and making them more engaging both visually and through more interaction. The whole objective of this project is to get kids active for at least an hour a day, which is one of the main things that Change for Life encourages.

I'm currently making a pack of activity cards, which have either a quick exercise or a game on them. Families can play with these either through mini sessions throughout the day (for example ten minutes per session) or one whole hour session. The cards can be placed in a bowl or a hat & drawn out one at time. Over the course of say, a week, if the children manage to play with the cards everyday then they can be rewarded with something, whether it be being given a special privilege or a little gift.

My target audience is families with kids that are aged between 5 - 7. As my cards are in the prototype stage, I need families to test them out to see if they work & how they could be improved. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to test them?

I can email the cards out if anyone would like to/can help me out, as well as a few questions that you & your family can answer.

I've got a blog documenting my process: www.domsvr.tumblr.com

Any replies would be really appreciated!

Hi Dmarz,

I would be interested in trying your prototype with my DD. She will be 5 in two weeks, and is Autistic - not sure if this is a problem? PM me if you would like us to participate, and I will send my e-mail address.

Hello :)

I have a 5 year old and a 6 (very nearly 7) year old and would be interested in taking part.
