Morten Hippe is an industrial designer located in Oslo, Norway. Hippe's new Zig Zag toy offers great hope for our children's futures. The brain-frozen plethora of video game junkies and junkies-in-training can get off of their bums and take a truly hands-on approach to fun with Zig Zag, encouraging creative problem solving and enhancing motor skills. The wooden toy has a variety of attachment options such as suction cups, pinches and a V-shaped string, all purposed and appropriated by the child who decides what goes where, eventually creating a spider web-like structure. Zig Zag is targeted for children of ages 6 to 8 and can be used individually or as part of a group interaction.
