Abstract

E-mail communication is afforded to young children not yet able to operate the user interface or to form or read e-mail messages. The child arranges symbolic blocks on a peg board in an arrangement that conveys a message which the system translates into language. The child also places on or near the pegboard a token to which a picture is affixed, the token containing the e-mail address of an intended recipient of the message, e.g. daddy. The language-form message is then transmitted by the system to the recipient as an e-mail message. The recipient can send back a symbolic counterpart of a message by entering the message in language form so that the symbolic counterpart is then displayed on the LCD of the peg board.
