Say hello to my new robotic friend...
I purchased a Sphero as part of the recognition of National Robotics Week (in April of 2014). I have had it out of the box a couple times and charged it, but I have not yet played with it. I have to say it is the cutest little thing... just can't wait to find out what it does! :-)
UPDATE: We had a blast playing with sphero during the 4th term in 2014/15. I have some big plans to integrate this cute little robot into my computer applications class as a part of our programming/coding unit! :-)
