Description
A robotic ball in a soccer shell, with eight cones for setting up a pitch on the lounge room floor. Twelve self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy turn what looks like a toy into a first coding course.
What's included:
- 1 x Sphero Mini robotic ball with a soccer shell
- 8 cones (4 green, 4 orange)
- Micro USB cable
- 12 self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy, with written guides and video walkthroughs
What your child practises:
- Drawing a path for the robot to follow — coding before reading code
- Scratch-style blocks for loops, conditions and sensor input
- JavaScript text programming once the blocks feel easy
- Setting a challenge with the cones, then programming a route through it
Free Sphero Edu app, available for iOS, Android, Kindle, Mac, Windows and Chrome. The ball charges over micro USB and connects by Bluetooth. The cheapest way into Sphero coding, and the one most likely to get picked up again after the lessons are done.
