Vladikavkaz Kindergarten No. 107 has received new robots.

The preschool has been operating a children's digital laboratory called “Experimentarium” for several years. Thanks to cooperation with the company Scientific Entertainment, two new robots have appeared in the kindergarten: the voice-controlled Naum complex and the Smart Greenhouse.

As noted by kindergarten director Raisa Batyrova, the institution has joined a program to test modern digital interactive equipment.

The kindergarten has created all the conditions for the successful development of each child. One of the main tasks of the kindergarten's teaching staff is to involve children in a modern interactive educational environment filled with educational and play equipment.
