I found this on Tumblr and I thought it looked cleverly done. Some ideas have come from this video.

Cinema 4D Test:
I chose one of my characters I design and decided to have an attempt at making them on Cinema 4D with everything I have learnt so far in 3D, here are the results:

Photoshop Colouring Test
I decided to try scanning in my character sketches and put them into photoshop, make the outlines black and colour them in, picking out colours to try out to help me make a decision on what kind of colour pallet I could use.
Character Illustrations
These are my final character designs that I will chose appropriate colours for.
Each of these characters will give a lesson and some will be an example to show to children, each giving a learning curve for them to learn and show.
I will also be testing out different ways of colouring them in to see which one works best.
Thoughts so far
For my final piece(s) I have decided to do a book where I will illustrate and tell an education story where they can learn while reading a story. I have also thought about doing an animation where I can animate my illustrations and have a different story in which they can watch. I have also thought of doing an app where children can interact with the story, picking out choices and seeing if their chosen choice was right, if not, they try again.
I also been thinking that my characters look better if I drew them out on paper rather than drawn on illustrator. Comparing them both, I think that the hand drawn ones look like that I've spent more time developing them then I have on the ones on Illustrator.

Final Character
So after a lot of rethinking, I decided to redesign my characters and instead do them as animal kind of plushes.
I've also had ideas to make them into real plushes that would make them more interactive.
I will research into how I would make other kinds and incorporate it into my own design.
