English Following a series of interviews with parents and teachers, and a cycle of collaborative design sessions with children aged 4-6 years old, this work in progress presents the design of an interactive storytelling robot able to engage preschool children in building narratives. Starting with a series of tools already on the market for this age range as a complement to reading aloud, we have elicited a number of requirements, using them to sketch a first version of ROBIN. We plan to further refine our work with another cycle of collaborative design sessions, and to implement a functional, high-interactivity prototype of ROBIN in the near future.
