These interactive robots can teach children a new word of a foreign language every day. From Flash Robotics, EMYS is an educational social robot described as a "bilingual friend for your kid." EMYS will be the subject of a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter launching February 28, 2017.
The feline robotic head expresses emotions and interacts in a variety of ways to further bond with your child. The interactive robots not only make learning fun as a sort of educational and electronic teddy bear, but they also provide companionship.

Most effective with consistent use, the toy can help young ones learn up to 1000 words of a new language.
