"I want to be an Astronaut when I grow up"
Every child is exposed to the novel experiences of the outside world that intrigue them to their fullest. From the wild and marine creatures deep down in the oceans, to the stars and planets high up in the sky.
But what next?
When they enter schools and institutions, they touch base on these topics but provide absolutely no experiential or heavy knowledge about these subjects that could possibly become a potential unique career choice when they grow up.

TAKEAWAYS
A narrative in the product can benefit audience to understand better and gain more value out of it. Especially interactive learning portals could leverage storytelling to attract the younger audience
Storytelling enhances experience
As I focused on making my screens look immersive, I realized they are mostly based on ones perception and the state of mind. Especially for kids, immersive is a concept still novel. Their main attraction is to large scale moving images
Immersive is a feeling
Less is more
Making interactive learning is always a fascinating breakthrough. But there is a limit to interactions that add value to a product, especially when targeting an audience that explores technology and can get easily distracted from the main intention
