GULP

Learning to swallow pills can be stressful. Help a cartoon monster by aiming water past a wiggly tongue, turning the theme into a short, repeatable game.

THE IDEA / GULP

Children who struggle with pill swallowing need an approachable way into a difficult skill. GULP uses a cartoon character and a simple challenge to make the subject less intimidating.

Aim the water sprayer, avoid the tongue and progress through three levels. This is pretend play, not a physical swallowing exercise: the cartoon action should never be copied by spraying water into a real mouth.
