Topsy Turvy Chores

Spin it! Read it! Clean it! This top and its packaging were designed to make doing chores fun! With the eye-catching colors and fun line art, this "toy" will hopefully make children excited to clean up the house. By adding a kinesthetic property to the mix of a usually boring duty, the children will feel like they aren't just cleaning the house for mom while she kicks back and relaxes until they're ready to spin this topsy, turvy top again! 
This board, found inside the box under the top, would be layed out in the center of the children and they would spin the top on the front side (viewed on the left). In the beginning, before you get the hang of which icon means which chore, you could use the reverse side to identify which child is doing which chore depending on which icon the arrow located on the top landed on!
The packaging has a square bottom that is 3 x 3 inches in area. When placed on a shelf, said shelf comfortably fits 4 boxes. In this area of the toy department the packging of the top really stands out from the rest. The minimal feel of the packaging draws your attention to it and makes you want to learn more. After studying the box for not even a second and wondering what exactly a "topsy turvy chore" would be you can find a poem on the back that helps to accomplish the overall appeal of the "toy"!
Located on the top of the packaging you can find a window where you can get a sneak peak of what's inside the box. Visible just through the peephole you can see the top and underneatht the top is where the board is located!
