Research On The Interaction Design Of Smart Toys For Early Education Based On Theory Of Children's Cognative Development

With a two-child policy published,and people's increasing living standard at the age of coming Artificial Intelligence,more and more parents have realized the importance of education,so smart educational toys gradually come to the attention of children and play different roles of children's playmates,parents or teachers.The interaction design research of smart toys for early education at home and abroad is still in its infancy,with rarely theoretical research,especially for children at different ages or the identified individuals.Therefore,it is worthwhile to study and explore children centered interactive design strategies of smart toys for early education.In this paper,preschool children aged 3 to 6 years old are studied as the research objects on the basis of children's cognitive-developmental theory.Firstly,literature analysis is used to analyze the cognitive ability of children at different age stages and the way to promote children's cognitive abilities.Secondly,the information interaction module of smart toys for early education is built to find out relevant children's cognitive abilities,including sense perception,attention,memory,thinking and language abilities.Thirdly,the mutual effects of smart toys' interaction design for early education,chidren's cognitive abilities and development requirments are analised from the aspects of interaction elements including input methods,output methods and interaction mode.The purpose of this paper is to study the principles and strategies of smart toys' interaction for early education,which yieled to and can promote children's corresponding cognitive abilities.The strategies are applied in a specific smart toy interaction design for early education.
