Children's growth depends significantly on playing, as it stimulates imagination. Consequently, providing toys that encourage creativity is essential. This specific toy, however, is challenging to manufacture using conventional molding techniques due to its concealed faces. I don't have a 3D printer and am unfamiliar with advanced printing methods like combining colors on two objects simultaneously or coupling moving parts' tolerances. Therefore, this toy's components are designed with zero tolerance, except for the paws that can move freely. The black rings and green body should be assembled easily by inserting them into a slot and turning 90 degrees. The body sections rotate 10 degrees in any direction thanks to a spherical coupling. To assemble the toy, simply twist the sectors 90 degrees through a slot. Resolve to play with your children more often this year, inspired by Tim Flach's stunning photography, including millipedes.
