No one would deny that kids love robots! Their interest comes from natural curiosity and imagination. First, robots are a combination of technology and play, which is especially fun for kids growing up in the digital age. Second, robots can execute different commands, and kids like to feel in control when interacting with them.
Third, robots are often portrayed in cartoons as friendly and funny characters. This evokes positive emotions in children: they see robots as potential friends and assistants.
