Learning ResourcesCoding Critters Go Pets Scrambles the Fox, Screen-Free Early Coding Toy For Kids, Interactive STEM Coding Pet, 14 Pieces, Ages 4+

Very cute. It’s super slow moving but still cute

It'll follow bold black lines. If you use some scrap cardboard or paper and use a sharpie to draw a thick black line, you can extend the play length

Used these to teach about coding and robotics to K-1. Worked pretty well, but go ahead and order LR44 batteries. 2 of 3 needed replacements before they would work correctly and in a pinch it adds a bit to the cost, I think I paid about $18 extra to replace batteries in two of them.

Great way to introduce coding to young learners. The two-sided puzzle pieces reinforce cognitive skills as they prepare the path for the device

My 4 year old twin grandchildren loved this gift. They were able to put the road together and had so much fun watching little Dipper the Narwhal move along their creation. Cute and such a fun way to learn.

I’m always skeptical of coding tools that will actually teach a young child anything. This one is an exception. It’s a fun toy all by itself, and really does help learn early coding in sort of a covert way. My 4yo has played with this nearly every day for two weeks.

So my child had played with this product previously and loved it, which is why this is not a one star review. The toy is easy enough for a 3 year old to put together and brings a lot of joy.The one I purchased, however, was defective and I didn't find out until the return window had passed. Only one of the wheels turns and it emits a high pitched sound when on. I contacted the company on their website as I had purchased quite a few of their products for my kids for Christmas and was quite happy with them, and told them the issue. I gave it a week with no response back before I gave up.Disappointed in the company, a shame because I am in charge of purchasing large amounts of educational toys for my company and will hesitate to do so now from this brand.

Bought this for a scout meeting to talk about how to program robots. Was a big hit with my 5-6 year olds! And it’s not a fun game at home with my kids.
