Year after year @nowplaythese showcases some really amazing games by some very talented artists.. #Dobotone by @Videogamo was definitely one of the best this year!
Sad to hear of the death of Stephen Hawking. His absence will no doubt be felt across the world, and particularly in the world of science. #RIPStephenHawking
We're exhibiting at the @RavensbourneUK #marketplace today! Come and say hey! – at Greenwich, London
Two #Octemo's were given out yesterday to #autisticparents for their kids. Time to play the waiting game as they keep them for a month and see how it goes. So excited to see the results! DM if you are a parent/tutor/school teacher and want to try 1 #research #sensorytoys #Autism
Visited the #ToyFair2018 today! Overwhelmed by how much there is to know about about bringing a toy to market! Information overload but found out about incredibly useful stuff and met some awesome people! Thank you @Intertek and all others!

"It is really encouraging to see someone invest their time and money into a product that could really change the lives of ASD children and other SEN kids."
Such encouraging words from testers of Octemo ❤️ #DesignWithPurpose #ASD #SEN
Had an amazing time with Michelle and Ethan deciding on their #prototype yesterday! Saw a lot, spoke a lot, learnt a lot! #Sensorytoys #Autism #Parenting #ThankYou
Finally saw the #CommunityWindowGallery at #CanaryWharf in the #Ravensbourne showcase and got a tour around #Level39 with #LondonViews
On #WorldMentalHealthDay Please take a moment to remember that not everybody is the same but that doesn't make us any less. Just different❤️
Please use the link to create avatars with, and of, all the children you hope to test Octemo with so we can send the accompanying cards too!
@savannahwoods6 the prototypes are all made, just waiting on voiceboxes to go inside the legs. Sorry about the delay!

Sneak peak of the new squad! Just waiting on voice boxes before sending it out to #schools, #parents and #professionals associated with #ASD
