Great product. Requires adult supervision and assitance
This product (albeit expensive) is great for what it is advertised - acquainting your child with computing and coding. This is not a "toy" and a child cannot be expected to handle or play with it on his own. However, under my guidance my 5 year old daughter (turned 5 last month - this was a birthday present) loves it and is very engaged with it when we decide to "play". Its great for quality time with your child, it opens their mind to simplifying instructions to basic levels in order to communicate with a computer (robot) and gives them additional skills like orientation when considering someone else's point of view, facing challenges & dealing with initial frustration of failure to overcome, patience, planning ahead and more. I would recommend anyone who considers buying this product to consider that the childs engagement with it will require close guidance. It would be a shame to spend such a large sum of money just to let it accumulate dust somewhere because no one takes the time to guide the child through the process of learning.

a birthday gift for my girl who loves smart games
The toy is so good, great quality and design. There are three instructions for kids to get used to the coding set from easy to hard. It was a big challenge for my daughter, but she was very happy to see the little robot move successfully with operation by herself. A great educational product for kids with no screen. My daughter can learn how to think and solve problems during playing.

Designing Fault
I love this kit. Love the concept, love the material.However, this kit we bought is having significant designing bug.First, the functionality of define and calling function block are swapped, which make it not practical to have 3 defining blocks and only 1 calling block.Secondly, the dance block program will increase the length of pace.Third, there were a few stucks after the robot got stuck once. The robot will not move again.I hope the seller can contact me and resolve this issue since I want to purchase the fixed product.I love the concept and looking forward to order it.

Great introduction to coding for children
The Matatalab Robot is very user friendly for children to even use! Suitable for kids ages 4 and older! The keys have arrow images that represent left and right turn, and moving forward in case children have not yet learned their letters or how to read words. It comes with obstacle walls, a board, keys, as well as a tower to send directions to the robot. The robot was very adorable and the colors were very engaging. I am a Kindergarten Teacher and I teach in a Computer Science Immersion School and have started to introduce this robot to my students. They are very excited to continue learning how to create codes for the robot. Some of my students have not learned their letters yet so this is a great way for them to be able to learn the concept of coding even though they do not know how to read words to input codes. The robot even creates music as well as lights up. Highly recommend the Matatalab Coding Robot even for at-home use!

Really Cool Tool for Critical Thinking Skills - For Younger Kids Only
My kids wanted this so bad, they pooled their own money to purchase it. They are 7 and 9 years old. Although it was really cool and worked exactly as advertised, the "fun factor" wore out for them very quickly. Once they mastered the concepts and ran a couple of programs, they quickly became bored. Total play time wasn't more than a few hours before they put it down forever. I think it would be great for much younger kids, but for kids at the top of the "for ages" range, it's a no-go for us.A couple value negatives are 1) The music tiles weren't part of the package. For the massive price, these might have extended the fun time a little. 2) It only came with one charging cable, but two components require charging, and the charging cable is something non-standard.One positive is that Dad (me) was amazed at the technology that went into this toy. It worked flawlessly.

Very fun way to introduce coding!
We purchased the Pro set and it came with plenty of pieces. You can use the included challenge packets (there's 3 included in this set) or create your own objective. My 6yo is creative so he likes making his own obstacle course that the coding robot has to navigate through to the finish. We've barely scratched the surface and have already had hours of coding fun with it. I don't know why other reviewers say there's not enough to it. I think it's meant to be a guide to creative play and we have loved every minute! We purchased the Talebot Pro for their easter baskets because we enjoyed this one so much!
