This paper describes the design and testing of a research Tangible User Interface (TUI) prototype for children. Some theoretical background is given on the evaluation methodology for children's products and designing TUI for children. The prototype is described and an exploratory initial study that investigated its usefulness is outlined. The authors found that the prototype went some way towards meeting the requirements but that it also needed some modifications for future use. The paper concludes with some reflections on the design of research prototypes and some recommendations for further studies in this area. The authors propose that a modified prototype can be used for evaluating the usability of a range of child-centered evaluation methods in future studies.
