This paper describes the procedure to create an emotional data-set, named WIYE (What Is Your Emotion?), composed by semantic contents, audio and video recordings of children. Data have been collected using an interactive storytelling application, leading children aged 4 years to 12 years to discover about their emotional sphere and emotion expression skills. During the story, every episode is dedicated and focused on a specific emotion. The investigated emotional states are sadness, anger, fear, surprise and joy. This corpus can be exploited by Conversational Technologies: it can be used with Machine Learning classification algorithms to train models to recognize emotions expressed by children starting from the pitch of their voice, their facial expression and the contents of their conversations.

Abstract
This paper describes the procedure to create an emotional data-set, named WIYE (What Is Your Emotion?), composed by semantic contents, audio and video recordings of children. Data have been collected using an interactive storytelling application, leading children aged 4 years to 12 years to discover about their emotional sphere and emotion expression skills. During the story, every episode is dedicated and focused on a specific emotion. The investigated emotional states are sadness, anger, fear, surprise and joy. This corpus can be exploited by Conversational Technologies: it can be used with Machine Learning classification algorithms to train models to recognize emotions expressed by children starting from the pitch of their voice, their facial expression and the contents of their conversations.
