The selected technologies were Unity as a three-dimensional game engine, SketchUp as a modeling program for objects and letters, Adobe Photoshop as a photo editor, Adobe Audition as a sound editor and VrBox as a 3D virtual reality glasses. We used the C language for the Front-end coding, additionally we used the GoogleVR library to carry out the required virtual reality; we coded the back-end in Visual Studio Code using the JavaScript language together with the Node.js and Express frameworks, implementing the web server infrastructure, which is hosted for free along with the Postgres database on the Heroku platform. We considered the ISO / IEC 25010 standards for the evaluation of usability, and an experimentation was carried out with 10 boys and girls aged 4 years, who were questioned using the usability test (USE QUESTIONARY) with a Likert evaluation system modified to a scale in pictograms to suit children's age-specific abilities.
