Abstract: 
Tamsui district in Taiwan is a historical region. There are many ancient cultural monuments, such as Fort San Domingo, Hobe MacKay Hospital, Hobe Fort, Tamsui Customs Officer’s Residence, Oxford College, and so on. Hence, in this paper, we design two e-storybooks for children by integrating of Tamsui humanities and computer technology. The two e-storybooks are built by a visual programming language, which its environment is media-rich. Children can interact with the characters in the story while reading the e-book. This way for informal learn not only is interesting, but also achieves the purpose of cultural immersion.
