This coding set helps develop critical thinking, coding skills, and problem-solving through hands-on programming activities. Children learn coding fundamentals such as sequencing and logical reasoning while operating the interactive robot mouse, Colby, which lights up, produces sounds, and offers two speed settings. The mouse features color-coded buttons that correspond to the included coding cards for straightforward programming.
The set contains 16 maze grids that form a 20" x 20" play area, along with 22 maze walls, 3 tunnels, 30 double-sided coding cards, 10 double-sided activity cards, a cheese wedge, and an activity guide. These components introduce core STEM concepts, supporting skills in science, technology, engineering, and math. The mouse requires 3 AAA batteries (not included).
Suitable for educational settings or home use, this set reinforces foundational learning for preschool, kindergarten, and early elementary students. It serves as a practical gift option for holidays, birthdays, or classroom activities.
Things to Keep in MindA recurring concern is the inconsistent and unreliable performance of the robot mouse itself. Users frequently report issues with the mouse failing to execute accurate 90-degree turns or travel in a straight line, often leading to frustration and hindering the intended learning experience, with some devices ceasing to function correctly after minimal use. Why You'll Like ItThe set is widely recognized for its strong educational potential, effectively introducing children to foundational STEM skills like coding, logical thinking, and problem-solving through hands-on activities. Its versatile design allows for varied maze configurations and open-ended play, engaging a broad age range.
