Description

EDUCATION SYSTEM FOR CHILDREN

The present disclosure relates to a system for educating children, and more particularly, to a system for educating children using toys.

Recently, short-distance communication technologies such as near field communication (NFC) and radio frequency identification (RFID) have been applied to various devices and used for various purposes. Here, NFC or RFID technology is one of electronic tags, and may refer to a technology for transmitting data between devices at a close distance to a contactless short-range wireless communication module using a specific frequency band.

A characteristic of such NFC or RFID technology is that data can be transmitted and received just by bringing the device closer to each other without a separate difficult operation. That is, it may be a technology that even children of an age who are not familiar with operating electronic devices can use easily.

Therefore, when such short-distance communication technology is grafted to a toy for children, it is possible to enhance the interest of children compared to the existing toys. In addition, depending on the method of application, it can not only promote children's interest, but also suggest directions for children's education.

Therefore, there is a demand for a technology for grafting short-range communication technology to children's toys.
