Blended Play is orientated around the physical and virtual worlds and the roles they play in the development of young people.

The project specifically explores the areas of playing and socialising. It proposes a model that is not bound to either the physical or the virtual worlds, but allows the two to be connected and for the child to play and socialise using both, simultaneously, blended together.

Blended Play creates an alternative approach to the standard keyboard and mouse interface with the computer for young children. It presents the idea of haptic and tactile interfaces, removing the child from the immediate environment of the computer, but not depriving them from the educational, creative and social possibilities of the web.
