Kids at Museum Soumaya Musi Workshop, crafting their own accesories
The simplicity and the possibilities of customizing it, makes Musi perfect for creating stronger bonds between the children and the toy, besides stimulating their creativity.
Children get a Musi toy and the accessories to start a new design; creating an entirely new toy that suits their needs.
We conducted two workshops, organized by the Carlos Slim Foundation for children living in shelters on Christmas 2015 and children’s day in 2016. The aim was to have children customize and craft new accessories for Musi.
