Spot the Circles

A poetic photographic series where award-winning authors turn the world into a treasure hunt, showing toddlers that beauty and geometry are hidden in plain sight. A sophisticated yet perfectly accessible tool for early childhood development.

On every page, a short text invites you to search for the right circle: the one that matches the clues, revealed one piece at a time. Sometimes the solution isn’t immediate and requires careful observation; other times, there isn’t just one single answer. In the end, the real fun lies in training your eye!

Key Selling Points:

– Visual education: children will enjoyin recognizing complex shapes in nature and urban environments.
– Lirical guidance: the rhymes act as clues, bridging the gap between verbal literacy and visual recognition.
– A new perspective: in today’s fast-paced, performance-driven society, it encourages a “slow looking” approach to the world.
