Requirement Statement
Worldoo is a site exclusively for children under age of 12 years. Its first of its kind, hence neither the client nor we were very clear with the project layout.

The client wanted the website to be common platform for knowledge, education, fun and creativity. In a nutshell, our challenge was to create a virtual world for the kids where they will receive the prospects to incarnate the learning activities of real life. As the site has kids at its receiving end so the client was very specific about the content of the site; each game, images, log-in process, networking, in fact the complete system as a whole is required to be completely safe for the children. The client wanted the website to be an educational site so that parents can gladly allow their children to participate. At the same time, as the client wanted, the website has to deliver the fun element as well so that kids find it interesting. So, the client wanted a resultant product that could satisfy both kids and parents.
