Learning Resources Botley Coding Robot Activity Kit for Kids Aged 5 and Up, 77 Piece Screen-Free Robotics Set

Bought this for my 6 year old, we're really into STEM. I gave her a demo of how it works, and she took to it right away. There are lots of different challenges that you can set yourself so it's a toy that will provide hours of entertainment while learning and for years to come

So, I bought this for my 2 year old daughter who is already showing an interest in "tinkering" with things. She watches me change batteries in her toys and takes my screwdrivers and imitates what I do. So, Botley struck me as a no brainer. When I took it out of the box, it was everything I expected it to be. The directions were clear and concise. I learned how to use it quickly and showed my daughter how to use the direction arrows and to transmit the program. At this point she is not sending Botley through any obstacle courses (obviously) but she does like to randomize the direction buttons she presses and then watch the results. I have no doubt this will serve me well for many years to come. Especially since I enjoy playing with it too haha

My students love the Code and Go Mouse, but this set does so much more. It is really new to them so they haven't had much time to work with it, but already they love it. If your students liked the Code and Go Mouse they will love this even more!

My son loves this set! He is learning so much, so quickly about how to break down steps and logically plan out (code) Botley's actions. This was one of the most liked gifts I've ever given him.

Purchased for my 5 year olds bday. He loved it and so did my almost 7 year old son. It does take some adult time to read the instructions so be prepared to spend some time teaching, but overall a nice learning toy.

My 6 year-old son enjoyed learning how to use this right away.

I use this product for my 2nd grade classroom and it is amazing. It helps them take turns and learn many tricks .

My 7 and 9yo kids love Botley. They have enjoyed making the robot move around and my 7yo son quickly discovered the "secrets" to make the robot do fun extra tasks. I can't wait to see what more they do with the robot when they have more time again.

This is a fun, learning activity right out of the box. The only thing you need are 5 AAA batteries. My daughter is 5 and it since she doesn't have a ton of experience in STEM activities or coding she definitely needed my assistance to start using this learning robot. Once we got going she really started getting into it. Like I said this is a great toy that teaches without feeling like a teaching toy. Just know that even a 5 year old will need assistance with this but it has been a great family bonding experience.We were all eager to set him up and code him thru obstacles. Very cute. Even after unboxing and packing away she was determined to code on her own.

Botley is the cutest! And my 5 yr old absolutely loves coding already. What a great start to Coding without sitting in front of the screen! My son hasn't even asked to play on his tablet in 4 days, he has been content with botley and all of botleys activities. There really is so many things you can do with this set. I've even played with him for over an hour with my son learning all the great tricks he does.
