Abstract :
To improve the existing techniques of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) for children, some principles for HCI design are proposed based on children´s psychological and physiological characteristics. Then a HCI structure WisPad is presented for children according to the principles. WisPad incorporates tangible user interface, gesture interaction, Avatar-based HCI, high-level semantics interactive technology and realizes the natural interaction between children and computers.
