The Advanced Coding Cards take KaiBot well past forwards, backwards and turn. This pack of over 100 cards covers movement, logic, functions, repeats, conditionals, variables, colour and social-emotional prompts — enough to keep a student progressing for years without moving to a screen. What's included: 1 x pack of 100+ advanced coding cards Durable, water-resistant finish built for daily classroom handling What the cards cover: Movement and directional control Logic, conditionals and repeats Functions and variables — concepts most primary students meet first on a screen Colour commands and social-emotional prompts Why it matters: The whole algorithm sits on the desk where a class can see it, point at it and argue about it Debugging becomes physical — students swap a card rather than hunt through code Concepts transfer directly to Blockly and Python when students move on The cards were designed by computer science teachers and are scaffolded by difficulty, so one pack serves a mixed-ability group rather than only the students who are already confident. Requires a KaiBot robot, sold separately. Multiple packs are worth considering for a class — each group coding at once needs its own deck.

KaiBot is a hybrid coding robot for students aged 5 to 15 — one robot that works completely screen-free, or alongside a tablet or laptop when you're ready for it. Students lay out a sequence of tactile coding cards, KaiBot reads them with its downward-facing camera, and then drives the sequence out on the floor. The logic is visible on the desk before anyone opens an app. What's included: 1 x KaiBot robot with built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery 1 x USB charging cable 1 x set of basic coding cards (33 cards) with a durable, water-resistant finish How it works: A downward-facing camera reads the coding cards and senses which numbered KaiTile the robot is sitting on A 1" LCD screen shows the recorded card, the battery level, and the student's emoji when paired with Kainundrum Four RGB LEDs signal the robot's state and the student's profile colour A built-in speaker gives audio feedback during activities The roof is Lego-compatible, so students can build on top of the robot Connects over Bluetooth and works with iPad, Chromebook, PC and Mac What students practise: Sequencing and debugging, before any syntax gets in the way A clear progression from unplugged cards to Blockly, and then to Python Cross-curricular work through Literacy Kitchen, Market Math and Kainundrum The battery is sealed and the shell has no user-serviceable parts inside, so there is nothing loose for students to mislay. Add the optional Autonomous Charging Dock and, once paired with Kainundrum, KaiBot will drive over and charge itself between lessons.

The KaiBot Intro Pack pairs the KaiBot coding robot with its first set of magnetic KaiTiles — enough to build simple mazes and start coding on the first day. It suits a single student at home, one station in a classroom, or a teacher who wants to trial KaiBot before committing to a full class set. What's included: 1 x KaiBot hybrid coding robot, with USB charging cable and 33 basic coding cards 1 x set of magnetic KaiTiles, numbered 1 to 10 Getting started: Lay the KaiTiles out as a path or a maze — KaiBot senses which numbered tile it is sitting on Build a program with the coding cards and let KaiBot scan and run it, with no screen involved Pair with the free Kainundrum Lite app for tutorials, coding modes, projects and a 3D virtual maze What students practise: Sequencing, direction and simple debugging Spatial reasoning through designing their own mazes An entry point that leads on to Blockly and Python as confidence grows You will need your own USB power adapter — the pack includes the charging cable but not a wall plug. Everything here works with the rest of the KaiBot range, so extra tiles, advanced card sets and classroom packs added later all fit together.

The KaiBot Large Classroom Pack is the full-class option — fifteen robots, sixty numbered KaiTiles and a student eBook for every child, sized for around 30 students working in pairs. It is the pack for a school committing to coding across a whole year level rather than trialling it in one room. What's included: 15 x KaiBot robots with charging cables 7 x Advanced Coding Card sets (100 cards each) 1 x Charging Station and 1 x Charging Dock 2 x sets of Magnetic KaiTiles 1–30, plus 1 x set of KaiTiles 31–60 1 x Teacher Guide eBook 15 x Student Activity eBooks Why the tile count matters: Sixty uniquely numbered tiles let several groups build separate mazes at once, or one very large shared layout Duplicate 1–30 sets mean two groups can run identical challenges side by side and compare solutions Advanced cards cover movement, logic, functions, repeats, conditionals and variables What students practise: Collaborative problem-solving across parallel groups Progression from screen-free cards through Blockly to Python Independent work, with an activity eBook each rather than a shared handout Sixty-plus CSTA-aligned lesson plans are available free from Kai's Education with an account. Purchase orders welcome from Australian schools.

The KaiBot Medium Classroom Pack carries ten robots and fifty numbered KaiTiles — enough for a class of around 20 students working in pairs, with tiles to spare for larger maze layouts. It adds a charging station, so a full set can be powered up overnight from one point rather than ten separate cables. What's included: 10 x KaiBot robots with charging cables 1 x Charging Station and 1 x Charging Dock 5 x Advanced Coding Card sets (100 cards each) 1 x set of Magnetic KaiTiles, numbered 1 to 50 1 x Teacher Guide eBook Running it in class: Five card sets means five groups can code independently rather than queueing for one deck Fifty uniquely numbered tiles can form one large maze or several smaller ones at once Robots can run screen-free, or paired with Kainundrum on iPad, Chromebook, PC or Mac What students practise: Movement, logic, functions, repeats, conditionals and variables through the advanced cards Collaboration and turn-taking in group rotations A progression from unplugged cards through Blockly to Python Over sixty CSTA-aligned lesson plans are available free from Kai's Education with an account. Purchase orders welcome from Australian schools.

The KaiBot Small Classroom Pack puts five robots and thirty numbered KaiTiles into a room — enough for around 10 students working in small-group rotation. Kai's Education suggests roughly one robot per three students, so this pack also stretches to a larger class if groups take turns at a station. What's included: 5 x KaiBot robots with charging cables 2 x Advanced Coding Card sets (100 cards each) 1 x Charging Dock 1 x set of Magnetic KaiTiles, numbered 1 to 30 1 x Teacher Guide eBook Running it in class: Uniquely numbered tiles can all sit on the same maze layout, so groups can build one large course or several small ones Advanced cards go well beyond basic movement, covering logic, functions, repeats, conditionals and variables Robots work screen-free, or paired with Kainundrum on iPad, Chromebook, PC or Mac What students practise: Sequencing and debugging as a group, with the code laid out on the desk Reading and following each other's algorithms A path from unplugged cards through Blockly to Python Over sixty CSTA-aligned lesson plans are available free from Kai's Education with an account.
