Our kids were super excited to get Botley the Coding Robot. We have a 3-year old, a 5-year old, and an 8-year old. They could hardly wait to get Botley out of his box.Set up was fairly easy, and required 5 AA batteries (2 for the remote, 3 for the robot). Our 5-year old enjoyed putting the stickers on some of the activity set pieces while the 8-year old read some of the instruction booklet (he was excited to code).We started Botley on the "Line" feature where he can follow a thick black line on the included cardboard play space (like a 2-sided puzzle that can be assembled many different ways). It was pretty fun and the younger kids thought it was great. You can draw your own thick black line on white paper and Botley will supposedly follow it, but we haven't tried this yet.The 8-year old was itching to code so we flipped the board over and tried to follow the coding challenges from the booklet. He jumped right to Challenge 6 and it took him a few minutes to get the hang of it, but once he got started he really enjoyed it. He spent 45 minutes working coding and playing with Botley, trying to get him to do different things.The 5-year old wanted a turn to code next and was very excited. She is a "do it myself" girl so once I explained the steps she really got into it. We used the deck of cards to keep track of the moves she wanted Botley to make, then coding them into the remote. She was so pleased with herself when Botley did the things she "told" him to do! She seemed really satisfied with it. She played with Botley for about an hour the first day, though with adult assistance.The 3-year old was obviously too young for the "ages 5+" recommendation, and with good reason. He liked rolling the balls, LOVED pushing the buttons on the remote, and trying to steal Botley and/or the remote from his siblings the entire day.PROS:- Easy to set up.- Adorable, endearing beeps and noises (uh-oh!, oooooh!).- Remote beeps and lights up to indicate that the button was pushed (when coding), which is very helpful.- Comes with a set of cards so kids can put the "moves" in order to help with the coding.- Booklet has 10 coding activities (in increasing difficulty) to get kids started on coding.CON:- Hard to share, not a great toy for multiple children to play at onceI highly recommend a Botley for the 5-9 year old in your life, but if you have more than one child, I recommend you buy two!

When we first heard about Boltey the Coding Robot, we were so excited to have the opportunity to play with him and couldn’t wait for him to arrive. When he got here my daughter was excited and wanted to know if he was for her. Of course we said yes and we explained what he could do and it does not require any screen time to make him work.Now removing him from the box was kind of challenging because he was packed very well. Keeping all the pieces together with a 6 year that just wanted to begin playing was another challenge. Once everything was unpacked, we checked and made sure that we had the right batteries that were required to make Botley and his coding controller work (5xAAA) 3 for Botley and 2 for the Controller. Mind you now, our 6-year-old is not patiently waiting to get started and start playing with Botley. She has played with other robots like this when she was a little younger (Mindstorm, Chip the Robot Dog) but these all require screen time. Boltey does not require screen time and you can bring him anywhere you have a flat clean surface to use.Now comes the coding part for my daughter. At first she just thought Botley was a Remote Control Car but when we told her what it could do, she couldn’t wait to try it out. We told her that she had to take the time to think of the steps of what Boltey wanted to do. Once we explained what and how to work Botley, and thank goodness for the Coding Cards, it was really easy to program Botley and tell him what to do. She did have a tendency to hit the delete button and start over but that’s ok even though you can continue where you left off.All and all, Botley is a really fun and challenging and the possibilities are endless.

Took longer to put batteries in than learn how to use.

At first, the product came with parts missingAmazon was highly helpful in sending a replacement soon.But the new product did not work at all. Even with brand new, good quality batteries, the robot did not move am inch (we followed all instructions).Had to return the product both times for good.

En general esta marca me gusta porque sus juguetes son muy didácticos, bonitos y duraderos. El robot es muy fácil de configurar y me ha gustado mucho el concepto, se lo hemos comprado a nuestra hija para dárselo en navidad pero a ella nomle ha gustado porque es más de colorear y de otro tipo de Juegos y actividades.Pero el juguete en sà es fenomenal.
