Canada-based educational technology company Lü Interactive Playground and Belgian educational products and resources Megaform have jointly acquired French educational technology company Marbotic, the company said.

Founded in 2011, Marbotic has developed an interactive educational product that uses the Montessori method to help young children learn math and reading.

The company's products have already been translated into 10 languages and have been sold in Apple Stores around the world for several years.

To date, more than 115,000 Marbotic products have been sold to homes and schools in 52 countries, while their educational app has been downloaded 5m times.

Having worked with major industry players such as Osmo, the company has also made its way into schools in the Netherlands, where several thousand teachers use their technology every day.
