Enjoy the fun of an interactive pet — and learn more about coding — with PYXEL from Educational Insights! This cute little robot comes with sound sensors so it can react to noises, a touch sense so it knows when you pet it, and a proximity sensor so it knows when something is in front of it. Kids can connect PYXEL to their device through a separate password-protected WiFi, so no internet connection is required. They'll quickly learn to use the Blockly coding language to program PYXEL's expressions and actions. Then, as they become more comfortable with coding logic, they can move on to programming with Python. With built-in tutorials and plenty of how-to videos, it's an engaging way to get kids experimenting with technology!
