Resumen

The ability to program from an early age helps to logical cognitive development. Incorporating robotics programming allows children to learn in a concrete and fun way, collaborating with each other. This allows children to succeed in developing key competencies of the XXI Century. The research proposed in this paper was the creation of a programming environment for mobile devices for early childhood children, from 4 to 6, to program robots. An early implemented prototype is described. Results of this research are expected to contribute to Human Computer Interface field, providing a design and implementation of a new infor-mation to support the learning process of programming in preschoolers nontraditional interface.
