What Kids will Do~

Why Children cannot Wait

-Children do not have much experience waiting. It takes time for them to learn why waiting is sometimes necessary and how to do it.
-Part of a child’s ability to wait depends on his age. As age increases, so will a child’s attention span.
-Children have trouble waiting because they don’t understand how time passes. They need some concrete aids to help them to understand.
-Kitchen timer sometimes is easy to tell the child exactly how long is one minute and how long is one hour.
-Those things like books, crayons, paper and other toys could make it much easier for a child during waiting.

Story

The mother tried to teach her daughter how to wait, and understand the time by means of giving her a kitchen timer and telling her that when the timer dings she will come back.

Then, the mother left.

At first, the daughter very happy about her mother's leaving, she entertained herself with some subjects at home during the waiting time, then got bored and at last fell in sleep.

When the timer dings, the mother came back and found her daughter and the mass at home, she put her daughter in bed, kissed her and turn off the light.

Theme



I want to keep my subject matter as simple as possible. I started with the everyday situation. The audiences may get through these situations themselves everyday, so they can feel what I feel and what I want to communicate. It makes it possible to get them influenced.

I think waiting is a very necessary thing for everyone everyday, so I decided to make the animation based on "waiting".
