Compatible across devices, this kit blends durable parts with a rich learning experience ideal for home or classroom STEM education.

## Description

An intuitive, state-of-the-art building and robotics kit for serious engineers and makers! Packed with hundreds of durable, reusable components, and designed for both home and school use, this comprehensive and engaging curriculum gives young learners the tools to explore the field of robotic engineering like never before. The kit begins with instructions to build 14 simple motorized robots with sensors that can control the robots. With over one hundred snap-together, versatile building pieces, kids can also construct new robots of their own design! Once you’ve built your robots, you’ll add code to program them and bring them to life. Robotics Workshop utilizes the award-winning micro:bit, a tiny computer that kids can program using the free web or app-based platform MakeCode. Through MakeCode, kids can begin their coding journey with easy-to-understand visual block-based coding, and then stretch themselves to learn the most relevant coding languages of the tech industry: Python and JavaScript. A 32-page full-color manual and tons of online resources feature step-by-step illustrated building instructions and explanations for how to program and operate the robot models. Also needed: a tablet running iOS or Android and/or a PC with Internet access. MakeCode is free and web-based, so there are no PC system requirements.

Review: Got this for my son for christmas and he absolutely loves it. We have now bought more micro bit chips and have been diving into making our own projects.
Review: I am not writing a bad review for this site/seller just the product. I purchased this kit for my son who is interested in technology and robotics. I work on and program robots myself. This kit at first seems ok but as you get into the more complicated projects, it requires extension downloads and other block functions. Many of these "required" downloads are not supported by microsoft and dont allow download. When you do get them downloaded, after a few runs of the program they no longer run because the extensions require an update which WILL NOT UPDATE..???? And tech support???? Virtually non existent.

*by B***L on 18 December 2025*

I have completed a few of these with a kid that is very interested in learning so they are a go getter. You will need that attitude with this set because it does have a bit of a learning curve that they will have to overcome. The quality of this set seems pretty good, no issues with connecting the pieces or wires. There are a few oddities with the way they connect but it easy enough to figure out. The programming aspect of this was visual based and there are plenty of examples. I would say this is a budget set, but I do think it offers a good value for learning more about robotics. Yeah there are some problems and obstacles, but that is all part of problem solving!
