«Meine erste Digitale Diät - in 30 Spielen» is an interactive gamebook for children aged 5 to 12, designed to gently steer them away from screens through playful activities and to repurpose screens in a different context. There is merely a re-functioning of the actual function, i.e. a TV set suddenly turns into a picture frame, a smartphone becomes a torch for a shadow play and a laptop is the basis of a colourful cardboard landscape. This digital diet must by no means seem compulsory for the children. They have the choice of playing a game every day or every other day until they have completed all 30 games at the end of this diet phase. The child plays the main role in my project. It is about putting the children in charge of their own leisure time. Through the games, they should on one hand gain awareness that everyday life can be made interesting even with less online time and on the other hand they should develop ambition and personal responsibility and understand that they themselves can be in a position to change their leisure time and thus their lifestyle in a positive way. 2021 | UniBz
