[OYAN] Do you use bots?

[Dana Campbell]

We recently purchased Dash and Dot and all of their accessories (xylophone, catapult, trailer, bunny ears/tail)  The apps are free to download.  I am going to be using them this summer with a Little Makers program we are offering and with preschool storytime.  I took them home this weekend to try out and Dash were really fun. I need to work some more with Dot.  I like them because they are rechargeable.

I also purchased Bee Bots, Blue Bots and ProBots (CAR)  I am planning on using Bee Bots with the young kids as well.  They are very simple to use.  Even I can do it!  ProBot holds a pen .  The kids can program the bot and it will draw what has been programmed.

I appreciate having really simple robotics for the kids to enjoy.  Also they appear to be quite durable.

Have fun!  Dana

Subject: [OYAN] Do you use bots?

Hi everyone,
I'm looking to make an end-of-year tech purchase of some programmable robots.  I'm curious if any of you have Ozobots, Sphero, Dash & Dot, etc.  I'd love to hear what you think about them and how they work in a group session.
Thanks!
April
