Abstract
Although children suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder tend to be nervous, not concentrated in specific jobs, anxiety that is transmitted to all those who are confined to the family, reviewed studies evidence that there are a large number of families that are affected by post-traumatic stress that obviously affects the whole home, the proposal is to create a playful environment capable of presenting scenarios that allow children to discharge their energy and focus on the educational environment, health and family well-being. The environment aims to be a counseling system that allows to identify the mood of the infant and proceeds through an intelligent system to deliver specific tasks aimed at improving the quality of life and reducing the level of anxiety, as well as helping concentration through the intervention of the family as a group or support group, we will focus on children from 4 to 6 years where children already enter virtual classes in most cases.
