How can we teach kids to manage energy use throughout the day by matching tasks with cheaper energy periods, in a fun and interactive way?
I had the pleasure of working on a board game that brings this important topic to life. As part of the EU funded Every1 project, the game was designed to inspire both children and teachers through interactive and inter-generational learning—and it’s been a hit!
Positive feedback from both groups shows how playful education can make complex subjects like energy management engaging and accessible.
If you're interested in developing innovative educational tools or community-driven projects—let me know.
Welcome on the Peafowl Planet where a bunch of busy peacocks has a long list of stuff to do!
Have you heard about the famous "Peafowl Power-Packed Baking Bonanza"? Imagine preparing a multitude of delicious treats in your electric oven: a sweet symphony of electricity-intensive baking..!
On the Peafowl Planet renewable energy is the to-go option for saving our precious money (peak-coins). Such a pity renewable energy isn’t available here every day. Luckily, planet’s advanced technology allows us to see the weather forecast in advance. This way we can plan accordingly! We are a bunch of smart peacocks, you know. With this game you'll learn about the fascinating dynamics of electricity prices.
Here's the deal:
On weekdays, when everyone’s at work or school, electricity demand soars, driving prices up—just like when everyone wants to see Olivia Rodrigo live and ticket prices skyrocket! On weekends, with people chilling and fewer factories running, demand drops, and prices can dip too. It’s a cool way to see how less competition affects electricity costs!
