The document describes the design process for BAMI, an interactive toy meant to help children ages 3-6 go to bed independently. Researchers conducted interviews with parents and observations of children's bedtime routines to understand children's needs and fears around sleep. They developed a concept for BAMI that provides implicit comfort and explicit interactivity to satisfy children psychologically. BAMI's functions include recorded messages from parents, a warm surface, glowing light, and response to names. The goal is for BAMI to form an attachment relationship with children and support healthy sleep habits.
