While coding and robotics may be intimidating topics for many parents, our industry-leading robots make it easy for kids of all ages to learn valuable STEM skills through play-based learning. These fun tools can be used at home to help kids of all ages get ahead over the summer and help prepare them for the new school year by making learning fun. Coding with play-based robots is also an excellent activity for children with autism!

Sphero Mini is ideal for educators to send home for individualized learning and can be easily facilitated and guided by parents making it the perfect robot for kids. Beginner learners can drive and play STEM-inspired games with the Sphero Play App, and more experienced learners can advance to programming the Mini with Block Based Coding or Javascript in the Sphero Edu App.
