Abstract
In the invited talk at KDAH 2018 workshop (CIKM 2018 conference) I have presented two projects carried out in our HCI lab and target to child: the first one is related to the evaluation in the wild of of a storytelling app for kids based on the swipe story approach, the second one is related to Wolly, an educational robot co-designed with children.
