“…The narrative unfolds according to the sequence of blocks placed on the platform; as such there are no predefined stories, a characteristic that sets the interface apart from other tangible storytelling systems (Budd et al, 2007;Hunter et al, 2010). We will illustrate this with an example: when children place the combination of blocks as pictured on fig.…”

Like Fröbel, Maria Montessori highlighted the importance of using objects and actively engaging in exploring the environment. Montessori's method, based on the Didactic Materials, addressed the stimulation of every sense (Montessori, 1912), and the design principle behind each of the objects from the Didactic Materials set, was to raise children's interest and curiosity. 2.1. Digital Manipulatives Recent technological developments made it possible to embed computational technology in objects, creating a new interaction paradigm with digital technology. Digital manipulatives 1 (Resnick et al., 1998) also referred to as tangible interfaces-TUIs (Ishii & Ullmer, 1997; Ullmer & Ishii, 2001) or tangible systems provide a more natural interaction, stimulating sensory and whole body perception, giving users freedom of movements, while creating richer experiences. Research has shown that physical manipulation greatly improves comprehension (Glenberg, 2010; Glenberg et al., 2011), and that digital manipulatives have the potential to expand the range of concepts that children understand (

Resumen -En este trabajo presentamos un nuevo sistema interactivo de Realidad Dual llamado Avatoys. Este sistema está basado en los juegos de marionetas tradicionales incorporando una dimensión digital. Las marionetas reales (toys) se convierten en una interfaz tangible que controla personajes (avatars) de un mundo virtual. Este mundo virtual permite crear nuevos elementos narrativos y enriquece la representación con efectos visuales y sonoros. Se ha desarrollado un prototipo funcional del sistema que implementa un conjunto de modos de interacción. Palabras clave: mrionetas digitales; realidad dual; interacción tangible.Abstract -This work presents a novel interactive Dual Reality system called Avatoys. This system is based on the traditional puppet games but adding a digital dimension to it. The real puppets (toys) are transformed into tangible interfaces that control virtual characters (avatars). This virtual world facilitates the creation of new narrative elements and enriches representation with visual and sound effects. A functional prototype of the system has been created, which implements a set of interaction modes.

Piying, the world's intangible culture heritage, is a characteristic Chinese folk shadow play and one of the origins of modern movie. The spirit of traditional Piying is to express rich emotion and stories through impromptu action change by professional artists. Now Piying gradually fades away in people's lives, encountering the risk of extinction. We focus on transforming the traditional Piying play into an interactive system, which can be seamlessly performed by ordinary people and bring a strong sense of immersion to the users. Two interactive systems were developed, with Kinect‐based interaction or sensors, users can create own digital Piying animations by employing their body movement as input. A field study was presented with 20 students in a primary school. The result showed that our system was far more effective in emotion induction and Piying understanding than traditional one. We demonstrated this system in a charitable foundation and a workshop of a tangible conference. It is also honored to be collected by China's intangible cultural heritage network.
