Kids can see when they have made an error in programming and they are able to try again to fix it. This can be played over and over again with more and more complex mazes as your childs problem solving skills and ability to plan ahead improve.  Once my son was good at complex mazes he liked to try to do it without the coding cards so that he really had to have a good understanding of how it worked and a good ability to think ahead in a stream of actions.

The World Map Floor Puzzle Kids Will Love By Educa…

As technology all around us becomes more prevalent and more used, so does the interest in understanding how computers work and in having our children become familiar with coding. One area in which the country faces aworker shortageis computer technicians and though I am not sure what my children will be when they grow up, I know that computer skills will probably come in handy. My son says he wants to make apps when he grows up so I decided to encourage his interest by getting him some exposure to coding through coding games for kids. Learning Resources provided a Learning Resources Code And Go Robot Mouse Activity Set in order to facilitate review.

Learning Resources Crocodile Hop Floor Game Review

My son is 10 and I was a little on the fence about whether it would be age appropriate for him and while I would say he is at the top end of its age target, he absolutely loved it.   The Learning Resources Code And Go Robot Mouse Activity Set appealed to him immediately.  The idea of creating mazes and having the robot mouse navigate them was something he was into right away and he opened up the box with extreme enthusiasm.  It is actually perfect for kids of a variety of ages because there are a lot of skill sets that can be learned and progressed through so that they can play more complex coding games as they learn.
