Returned to Taiwan in 2013 and began creating illustrations under the name Princess Cada. Co-founder and Design Director of Children's Design Workshop Teacher of ECA-Fashion Design Workshop at Taipei European School. Textile Brand Design Consultant **Creations** 2015 - Kimi's Little Adventure (Bilingual) Picture Book 2017 - The Story of the Monochromatic Bird (Bilingual) Picture Book 2016 - Founded the Petite Mode brand **Designer's Note** Nature is a constant source of inspiration for my creations. In this "A Closet for All Seasons," I wish to enclose the magical seeds of green, inviting adults and children who open this book to re-read the lines and colors of the mountains and forests. Through my brushstrokes and years of design experience, I hope to transform the everyday act of 'getting dressed' into a journey of aesthetic exploration. I invite you to pause, open your curious eyes, and explore this wardrobe. A Little Story Behind the Development of the "A Closet for All Seasons Picture Book Game Series" **★ Cultivating Aesthetics** The colors of nature and the landscapes of life are sources of design inspiration. Beautiful things can be grand mountains and vast waters, or they can be small scenes from everyday life. Through thematic guidance, we encourage children to discover beauty, explore colors, play with styles, and ultimately develop their own unique perspectives on aesthetics. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47758308631_3e98237a0c_o_d.jpg **★ Local Meets International** In the classrooms of Taipei European School, children nurtured by diverse cultures each shine in their own way. Embrace global diversity with an open perspective, cherish the land beneath our feet, and value cultural differences. Therefore, for the girls' edition, we created four characters: Miya, Peppe, Marta, and Sophie. For the boys' edition, the characters are: Max, Dong Dong, Mayao, and Will... They come from different cultures and backgrounds, but they all share a love for exploring the world of beauty and cherishing the wonderful things in life. We hope that children will identify with themselves and love themselves, and that no matter where they come from, they can shine brightly through their creations. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/33881229658_f2bc719081_o_d.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/46841802675_2da2749728_o_d.jpg **★ Independent Thinking** This series of picture book game books begins with a picture book, encouraging children to develop independent thinking skills and approach design intuitively. One theme, "A Closet for All Seasons," sparks unlimited imagination, and through continuous experimentation, children gradually form their own design viewpoints and establish the ability to think independently. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/46968996094_0533b87653_o_d.jpg **Origin Story** Children's Design Workshop was co-founded in Taiwan in 2014 by two sisters who studied and worked in France. Dedicated to promoting children's aesthetic experiences and guiding them to explore their personal style. Our "Petite Mode" courses have received widespread acclaim at institutions such as Taipei European School, American Creative Center, and Taipei New World Montessori School... But how can we enable more children to participate in this process of aesthetic development? In the summer of 2017, we developed the "Petite Mode Design Box," which allows children to learn basic design concepts through play. We hope this design box will spread the seeds of dreams and aesthetics to big cities and small towns, allowing children to explore their personal style through games and experience the sense of accomplishment from hands-on creation. Now, we extend the exploration of aesthetics to the "A Closet for All Seasons Picture Book Game Series," suitable for preschoolers. After much feedback from parents and product testing, this series, featuring both girls' and boys' editions, has received overwhelmingly positive responses. We thank all the parents and young learners who have supported and participated in the journey of Children's Design Workshop! **Cultivate Aesthetics from Childhood, Style Blossoms Here!** **Expert Recommendations** **Sindy Chou, Founder & CEO, Daosi International Education Institution** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/46841802385_d0888ddc33_o_d.png In my 32 years of extensive early childhood education experience, I have deeply realized that children's learning ability and willingness are determined by their intrinsic motivation to learn. The "A Closet for All Seasons Picture Book Game Series" establishes an environment for creative learning through its physical components and guides learning with vivid and engaging visuals through its software, allowing children to cultivate artistic intelligence while engaging in intellectual learning!

My daughter loves their workshops and the passion which the Petite Mode team brings to their workshops transfers directly onto the children. Consequently my daughter has gone back to rejoin more workshops in which she has developed her style and her design skills, not to mention her enthusiasm for fashion! I affirm the efforts of Petite Mode in children's education, not only in inspiring creativity but also in providing students with practical skills that can be applied to life. My daughter loves their workshops, and the passion of the Petite Mode team is directly transferred to the children. As a result, my daughter has participated in multiple Petite Mode workshops, where she has developed her own style and design skills, not to mention her enthusiasm for fashion! **Megan Hsu, Director, HESS School, Dexing Kindergarten** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47758308221_da08725563_o_d.png "A Closet for All Seasons" is a great way to inspire kids with their creativity on something that we never done before.
