In grade school, students are told to make dioramas of mundane topics like the forest or the ocean floor for homework.
These innovative dioramas made by adults are far more subversive, however, and range from fairytale homicides to disastrous papercrafts.
Implications - Sometimes advertisers may forget that adults can be just as interested youthful objects as children. Creating items such as boardgames and artworks that are childlike while adding adult humor or content is a great strategy for businesses to use because it entertains two different generations at once. This strategy is already being used in childrens' movies where adult humor is added to make the movie more enjoyable for an older audience.
