Abstract

The book ’Sally&Molly’ is for children aged five to ten, a phase where children transition from a self-centered view of the world to social understanding. Via mobile AR we offer a second layer to the book and playful activities with it. We describe the design and design rationale, and explore cooperative real-time multiplayer mechanics for children in mobile AR.
