The didactic board is a multifunctional educational and educational tool created by students of the Industrial Mechanical Engineering School. The board is intended for the development of motor and cognitive skills of preschool and early school-age children. The board encourages fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, logical thinking, recognition of colors, shapes and numbers, and the development of sensory perception, all through interactive play. The didactic board contains a number sequence, gears, a clock with moving hands, laces, locks, switches, a labyrinth, and other tactile elements. The process of creating the board began with CAD modeling, followed by production using an EMCO CNC lathe and a Creality 3D printer. The students used aluminum and steel for precise mechanical parts, and plastic and composite materials for visual and functional elements. The project to create the didactic board combines technical and pedagogical components and contributes to the development of practical and creative skills in children and young people.
