Criterion B: developing ideas

Design1:
Balloon with flour, that we can make any shape we want. I choice
the flour it make the bread. I dont want the strong flour. When I put
the flour in the balloon, I should tie the balloon. Then the flour will
not come out. Also I would like to draw the cute face, and use some
wool to make the hair. because it will attract kids. Kids can scratch
it. I think the height of the toy is around 4 cm. and the diameter is
around 5cm. it would like to make it medium that kids can hold it in
their hand.

Design2:
Its a doll. I would like to put the cotton in fabric. And you can put
your hand in the hand part of this doll. Then I am going to put the
button for the eye part. And use string to make the bottom, I want
to make is fun. And I think body is 10cm, there are two hands. Each
hand is 6cm.

Design3:
The frog that we can use strings to move the body. I am going to use
wood to make this toy, and each connect part I want to use button.

make my toy. First I am going to blow my balloon than let the air
come out. Than I cut the water bottle. Put the balloon on the
bottleneck. Than I am going to put the flour until the balloon is full.
Than I will close the balloon, which means I am going to tie a knot.
After that I am going to draw the smile face or cute face. But I am
