mediación lectora, cuentos interactivos, lectura digital, primera infanciaResumen
La creciente incorporación de recursos digitales en la primera infancia ha transformado las prácticas de lectura y las formas de mediación entre niños, adultos y textos. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la evidencia científica reciente sobre el impacto de los cuentos interactivos en la mediación lectora y en el desarrollo de habilidades lingüísticas, narrativas y de lectura durante la primera infancia. Se realizó una revisión de la literatura con enfoque cualitativo y diseño documental, siguiendo las directrices de PRISMA 2020. La búsqueda incluyó publicaciones indexadas en Scopus, ERIC y SciELO entre 2022 y 2026. Se identificaron inicialmente 30 registros; tras eliminar los duplicados y aplicar los criterios de elegibilidad, se seleccionaron 10 artículos para la síntesis final. Los resultados muestran que los cuentos interactivos pueden favorecer principalmente el aprendizaje de vocabulario, la comprensión narrativa, el lenguaje oral y la alfabetización emergente cuando los elementos multimedia se relacionan directamente con la historia. En contraste, el exceso de animaciones, sonidos o componentes interactivos desvinculados del contenido puede generar distracción y aumentar la carga cognitiva. Asimismo, la evidencia destaca que la mediación de docentes y familias sigue siendo fundamental para orientar la atención, promover la formulación de preguntas, explicar el vocabulario y estimular la construcción de significados. Se concluye que los cuentos interactivos constituyen recursos complementarios para la mediación lectora, cuya efectividad depende de la calidad narrativa, del diseño tecnológico, de las características propias de la infancia y del acompañamiento de los adultos.
