Young kids can learn the basics of coding and programming with Robot Mice & Cubelets. They can learn to design a game as they place obstacles throughout the mat and try to lead the mouse safely to his cheese. Cubelets make the principles of programming easy to learn and practice – as you build your robot you build the code that controls its behavior. It’s hands-on coding!
