The AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) decision-making method was applied measure weights feature. analysis determined that motor skills ( W C1.1 = 0.127) have highest impact growth among all sub-criteria, followed by space shape size C2.1 0.100) cognitive development C1.6 0.097). IUPD toolkit implemented Vivacity Singapore validated. implementation showed ‘gold’ grade. It is well-designed supports through interaction various shapes, colors, textures, materials (like sand water) love. However, it needs minor improvements terms inventiveness creativity (WSM C1.4 0.65), (WSMC1.4 0.57), time program schedule C2.7 0.65). universal tool evaluate performance
