Qobo Preschool STEM Educational Interactive Toy by Robobloq for Kids 3-8

Qobo by Robobloq is an early education robot set aimed at children from 3 to around 8 years of age. The set consists of Qobo (a friendly snail robot), 30 programming cards, a map, and a manual (PlayBook) with instructions and sample lessons.

Qobo can be used by younger kids with just programming cards (no other devices as phones or tablets are required), while older kids can try programming it using a computer (Robobloq provides a special programming environment on their website). There are 2 play modes:

– free mode – user places Qobo on a programming card with a given command to scan it (or multiple cards if they want to create a sequence or a simple program), then Qobo moves, makes sounds, or changes its color according to the ‘program’

– game mode – user has arranged the cards on the map in a correct sequence to solve ‘quests’ (simple coding problems) from the PlayBook. Available commands include moves, turns, simple loops and conditions, and additional functions such as color change, sounds, ‘dance’ etc. Command sets and Qobo functions can be expanded with optional packs with extra programming cards (math, music).
