With the help of a floor robot that moves on the track, it can demonstrate the flow of production of Greek traditional products such as:mastic or restes of Chios, manouri of Sifnos, sausages of Trikala, gruyere of Naxos or Crete, belte (tomato juice) of Milos, Turkish delight of Syros, currant of Corinth, pistachio of Aegina and so many other fine products. According to the instructions given by the children to the robot, our teams show what the products of their place are and make us understand that their area is part of a wider system.
