ABSTRACT

This study proposes a data-driven operational model that integrates Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into child-led play and family-participatory care. To address challenges faced by children and families—such as excessive private education, reduced playtime, and widening care gaps—the service framework is designed around children’s rights to autonomy, safety, and participation. The proposed model comprises: an IoT sensor network that continuously measures indoor/outdoor environmental, safety, and health conditions; a pipeline for collecting, cleansing, and analyzing content-usage and behavioral data; a personalized recommendation engine that tailors play and care activities to developmental stages as well as family types and preferences; and an operational governance dashboard that visualizes safety, engagement, and efficiency indicators in real time. To protect personal data and enhance children’s rights, the design adopts Privacy by Design principles, including data minimization, pseudonymization, guardian consent, and purpose limitation. A phased deployment roadmap and key performance indicators are also presented to validate feasibility and scalability.
