<p>Wink is a platform which contains a children’s story I wrote called Bee Within and am making into an interactive experience, in relation to my research. Throughout this year, I hosted three workshop with kids between the ages 6-8 where we read "Bee Within" and played improvisation games around this theme; games including sound, acting, drawing. The main aim is to make the reading experience more fun for children and to make them re-visit the text to read through the multiple narratives in the story. </p>

Wink- A Prototype for Interactive Children's Literature
### Grad project Description
Wink is a platform which contains a children’s story I wrote called Bee Within and am making into an interactive experience, in relation to my research. Throughout this year, I hosted three workshop with kids between the ages 6-8 where we read "Bee Within" and played improvisation games around this theme; games including sound, acting, drawing. The main aim is to make the reading experience more fun for children and to make them re-visit the text to read through the multiple narratives in the story.
to make reading into a mindfull and thought provoking process by using interactive and playful elements, multiple stories within one narrative and sound elements. Especially today where consumerism and low attention span is a rising issue especially amongst young readers, this was an important task to tackle. The thought of Wink emerged to find a more sustainable and creative way of reading for elementary school children.
