Smart Box Educational Building Blocks

Smart Box

Smart Box is a set of modular educational building blocks made to teach basic mathematics to children. The set includes four modules linked by near field communication technology: two number modules, one operation module and one display module. When the modules are brought together correctly, the display module shows the answer and plays a matching sound. The difficulty of the calculation is adjusted by adding or removing modules. Each module measures 35 millimeters. Smart Box combines play and learning to support early education.
