mTiny

A screen-free coding experience for students aged 4+. Cardboard puzzle pieces fit together to form a story on one side or a town scene on the other. Uses a mini remote (looks and behaves like a wiimote) for operation.

Root Robot

Ever heard of a roomba? This is a robot that is from the same company! Works with iPads (right now...more coming soon) and students can code the robot to do about anything. Can draw with markers and even whiteboard markers. Also can erase AND go on a vertical surface.

3Doodler START Pens

3D printing can be daunting at a young age, but the 3Doodler START pen is a great way to start. Totally safe for young hands (no hot surfaces) to experiment with working with filament and building 3D images.

Kubo

Another screen-free coding experience for children. Use the cardboard pieces to build your code and then you can have the robot move through maps that can be designed and printed from an online resource.

Unruly Splats

A great way to bring physical education and coding together. These tiles are connected to an iPad where you can use blockly coding to have them light up, make sounds, keep score, start a timer, etc. when you depress them. Can even be JUMPED on. What a fun way for kids to make up their own games to play with!
