From Xiaolin: Tabi sock puppets& Kotatsu

1:Tabi socks puppets

When I researched the culture and products in America.I found that socks puppets are one kinds of unique toys in American children's lives. They are cheapest toy for children and have a various kinds of changes. Children love them.
In Japan, Tabi socks are one kind of traditional socks that are very good for health. Therefore, My idea is a new kind of Tabi socks with a can package and a playful function as a toy.
Each can has a pair of colorful Tabi socks and some random "body parts" and some little stuff for decoration. Their backs have velcro tab that could easily stick on the socks.Children could use then to decorate their sock puppets and play with other children. And beside the playful function, when children wear this Tabi socks , they are good for their foot health as well.

2: Kotatsu

With the researching between USA and Japan. The difference is about "Floor". In Japan, people sit and eat even work on the floor. Therefore, the kotatsu be invented by Japanese people just for the low tables. So to change this traditional Kotatsu to be more possible to accept for american people, my idea is about to let the kotatsu much "higher" from the floor. And American people could use it without sitting on the floor when they feel cold.
