(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Excellent. It works just great. My son was away from iPad and iPhone and just played with this coding robot without using any screen. Great 👍👍👍

4.0 out of 5 stars It’s a pain to find the right card
There are two types of cards: the programming cards and the course layout cards. I found it helpful to separate the programming cards into several ziplock bags by general function.The course layout cards are the big ones and have different things on each side. So when you are putting together a layout, you have to hunt through both sides of about 20 cards. That’s fine for the older kids but the little ones get distracted. My solution is to number each card with an A or B for the side. Then I went through every layout in the book and wrote the Card number/letter on the diagram. Now instead of having to shuffle through all the cards I just look for the number.We haven’t worn out the cards yet but we will. I wish the company made more robust cards using wood or plastic.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the best coding primer for kids < 8 I've ever seen
First of all, I took a bit of a leap on this one because we had mixed results with another kit from the same company (the candy claw machine). It was VERY complex and it ended up my wife and I had to do the bulk of the construction. I worried this would be similarly challenging, bit it is PERFECT for younger kids (I'd say < 8 but even a 10 year old would probably have a blast). And once the physical construction is done that's where the real fun begins. The kit comes with two different types of cards that fit together like jigsaw pieces: programming cards and map cards. You use the former to "program" the bot and the latter to let it "execute" that program from its memory. It's worth mentioning I've had a number of false starts getting my kids (7 and 5) into the basics of coding. Typically the teaching tools I've found are either non-intuitive to a kid, or if they are the principles they impart are often non-transferable. If the lessons gleaned are entirely internal to the game or tool, what good is that? Within 20 minutes of beginning to lay out their programs, my kids were immediately learning highly transferable lessons about syntax, object orientation, debugging, trimming sequences to make them shorter without sacrificing functionality, etc. And all without the need for a complicated tablet app or any such thing. Everything you need comes with the kit. The construction feels hardy enough to withstand even the most brutish kids and the whole thing has the feel of a toy to them. Both of my kids are on Scratch almost every day (haven't quite made the leap to Python with my oldest), but I dare say this kit more efficiently taught them the most foundational and transferable principles of coding of any tool I've seen yet. Don't be scared of the price tag. Many dozens of lessons and experiments will keep the insights running for quite a while. This thing is worth every penny!My sense is if your kid is in Grade 4+, you can probably just skip straight to a real language. There will be struggles, but they may as well learn a real language at that point. The insights about syntax and debugging and such will just come from experience. But for younger kids this is the best tool I've ever seen for teaching the foundations of coding, bar none.
5.0 out of 5 stars The kid had a great time
I hardly ever leave a review. This product made me leave one, though. We bought this product 2 years ago. At that time, my kid was 7 years old. He tried constructing the plastic pieces, code and map cards. Even with my help, he could not understand the 'code' card concepts. I let the toy sit for a year. Now during this summer (2022) holidays, I helped him kickstart the first project. He immediately latched on to it, built all the projects in the manual. He finished all the projects in under a month. He loved the coding concepts like - If condition, loops, sub-routines etc. This is an amazing toy for a kid approximately 8 yrs. old, may be even younger. One con with the product is that the 'code cards' (Item no 53) do *not* fit into the 'code card frames' (Item no 54) properly. As a result, code cards falls through the frames. Sometimes the 'Robotic base unit' (Item no 44) fails to scan the code cards. Other than the minor flaw, this is an amazing product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a fun and educational little set
The media could not be loaded. My little one loves this so much. It’s so simple and easy to figure out and there’s so many different combinations of courses to make for the robot and different forms the robot can take. The actual coding part is so simple (shown in the video) and it’s super easy for kids so they can be introduced to coding. Heck my husband and I played with it for a bit too! 10/10 so fun!
2.0 out of 5 stars Flimsy cards make this set useless after a couple months
I originally wrote a 5-star review on this kit because my six-year-old son and I were having so much fun with it. But the very next time we went to use it, the cards were unable to stick together and we couldn't make even simple programs work. 90% of this set is amazing, but the map and programming cards, which are the most important pieces, are cheaply made and become slightly bent with even gentle use, making the whole set useless. We haven't even made it through the whole book of experiments yet. I'll be emailing customer service about this.
Very well thought package

Not fully understand how much damage could thes carton take before it will not work properly anylonger.Good luck!
So good!

A toy that helps develop kids skills
I completely LOVED it! Bought it as a gift for my nephews and they are thrilled with it . I recommend it at 100%.
Good learning opportunities
Bought this for grandsons. Apparently it’s a good product for them to learn on at different levels so worth buying
+/-
The box is a little different than i the photo and we missed one detail which is needed for programing. It’s confusing.
