Learning Resources Code & Go Robot Mouse Activity Set Rechargeable, Toys for Age 4+, Boys and Girls, Screen Free Interactive Programmable Robot

This comes with everything you need for basic coding fun. The children can set out a path the children would like the mouse to follow. They programme in the directions using the arrows and then press go and watch the mouse follow out the directions they programmed. The children really enjoy it.

The media could not be loaded. This toy reminds me of the Computacar toy by Mettoy that I had in the 1970s. You could programme the car to go forwards or turn left or right by cutting out ridges in a special card that was pulled through the underneath of the car. It was a brilliant concept and led to many happy hours of inventive play until the batteries needed to be replaced.This toy brings this concept into the 21st century. All is solid state, with built-in rechargeable batteries via the enclosed USB-C charging cable. The mouse memory is programmed by tapping the direction buttons to ensure that it moves forwards, backwards or turns to left or right. I tested this game with a 5 and 7 year old who took to the concept like a duck to water and were quickly setting up complex series of moves to guide the mouse around a maze to find its lump of cheese.Strictly, this is closer to using a programmable calculator than genuine computer coding but it does create a game that is just as much fun to play with as my old Computacar. It’s not cheap but is well built and easy to use straight out of the box. It does have plenty of learning potential and would link well to future education about basic coding concepts.

The LRC Robot Mouse is great for young infants. It teaches programing ideas in an easy to understand way. Child (3 3/4) immediately grasped the Go button, Reset and one/two programming steps. The rech5argable mouse also saves on batteries. The mouse drifts of coarse a little with many steps, but this is not too bad. The amazon collection from a pickup counter was also very good as normal. Happy camper, thanks.

The media could not be loaded. Bright colours interesting cards for maze ideas or I can randomly make my own maze. If I want to I can add household items to program colby the mouse to avoid. My mouse sometimes goes a bit sideways but a quick prod is fine, he is usually in need of a chargeAdult supervision needed for younger children but the instructions even help me with teaching ideas.An older child can do this themselves.It says 4+ but I would only let my 4 year old grandson do this as a 1 to 1 as the mouse is not to be pushed back and forward with force.A challenge for me as well.Mouse can start with a couple of commands then these can be added too, or cleared to start again if your commands are like mine…a bit wrong.There are command cards to plot the route and they help a child remember.A really good educational toy that can be used again and again without batteries!

This was easily the favourite toy this Christmas for my four year old - it's so engaging, and so easy to work. I thought it would need a lot of parental guidance but after initial set up and demonstration, he can do it all by himself and it keeps him enthralled for ages. A total hit. Brilliant!
