Build your maze, and then use the coding cards to create a step-by-step path for the programmable robot mouse. Program the sequence of steps, and then watch the mouse race to find the cheese! This deluxe STEM set provides the perfect hands-on introduction to coding concepts for children ages five and up. The colorful components make it easy for kids to design mazes, plan routes and program their mouse to navigate through obstacles to reach the cheese—learning fundamental coding skills through play without screens or apps. Children love watching their programming come to life as the mouse follows their commands, building critical thinking and problem-solving skills with every maze they complete. The color-coded buttons make programming intuitive, with forward, backward, left, right and action functions that can be programmed up to 40 steps in sequence. Parents and teachers appreciate how the set grows with children's abilities—starting with simple paths and advancing to complex mazes that require sophisticated programming solutions. The activity cards provide structured challenges, while the customizable maze components allow for endless creative possibilities. The sturdy plastic construction withstands enthusiastic play, making it ideal for both classroom and home use.
• Teaches fundamental programming concepts through hands-on play without screens or apps, perfect for children ages four to eight to develop essential STEM skills.
• Builds critical thinking abilities as children create and navigate mazes, plan sequences and troubleshoot solutions when their coding doesn't work as expected.
• Includes 10 double-sided cards that gradually increase in difficulty, helping children build confidence and coding skills at their own pace (batteries required, not included).
• Creates fun learning moments for the whole family as parents and siblings can work together to design mazes and programming challenges.
