As a homeschooling family. I'm always looking for hands on innovative learning products. This is just that! My kids are 6 and 7. I showed my kids how to use the robot mouse one time and they we're off coding on their own. They started with using the direction coding cards and quickly moved to not needing them. They get so excited when the mouse gets to the cheese! This product is awesome as it teaches problem solving, logic and critical thinking while having fun. My children love the challenge of the activity cards. The mouse has two speeds, "normal" for the green maze board or "hyper" for play on hard surfaces making a bigger maze. It programs up to 40 moves. I'm happy I got this product for free as I've had my eye on it to purchase for a few months!
