Abstract

In this paper, we suggest a new interactive game for children, Bubble Letters, which allows children to experience both real and virtual environments by interacting with physical interfaces. A user composes a message from the screen and displays it on the public screen. With this process, children can learn how to compose and deliver their messages to their friends with fun, and may also develop a conception of the world by involving physical interactions. Adults can also enjoy Bubble Letters by retrieving childhood memories through childlike acts with their children.
