Great for kids to learn programming!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this Robot for my daughter. It requires and app to work. My daughter is using an iPad. I teach programming and this tool is one of the best ways to expose young kids to technology and programming and robotics. These are the jobs of the future and so it’s good to get a jump start on it. You can program the robot to talk, make turns, shine lights, etc... I like to challenge my daughter with random courses throughout the house. For instance, I might say. I want to see the robot start at the front door, make its way to the kitchen, circle the island, flash it’s lights, and then return back to the front door and say hello. successfully programming tasks like this will require about 1-2 hours of work for a youngster (5-7). Older kids might complete sooner but I would add more advanced courses for them. This is all stuff you can do within your home. Again, this is a fantastic learning tool and should be a required course in elementary school. Hopefully one day that will happen!

Great first robot
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a Christmas gift for my two boys, ages 8 & 10. My youngest just learned about coding this school year, so the Dash Robot was a great opportunity to put his new skills to use. My 10 year old found it to be user friendly and is attempting to program Dash to spy on his sister. Both boys were very excited to show off the newest member of the family to friends and family members.

Very good learning toy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best learning toys available. There are a variety of apps available for iOS that will introduce kids to programming concepts. Kids as young as 3 can get some fun out of this and it definitely has something for kids even at high school age. You can create much more advanced challenges using this like navigating an obstacle course automatically. This is a great way to get kids interested in computer programming.

Great for aspiring programmers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this thing. Set up was a little bit of a pain, but has been great after we figured it out. Lots of things to do, can change voice, colors, and easy to control. Has games that unlock a series of different controls and program sequences. You can have further control once they learn more.

Daughter loves it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Daughter said her school has these in their technology class and wanted her own for Christmas. She received one and loves the ability to control it with her iPad and program a series of actions. She also bought the launcher attachment on her own and said that part is a must have.

Great Learning Tool for Kids
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great platform for kids to start learning the basics of programming. It is easy to use and quite sturdy for some rough handling. The interface is easy to understand and you can get the bot doing some neat stuff pretty quickly.

Great product - fun way to learn
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I learned of Dash through our kids' school. Great way to teach coding and creative thinking. Should have purchased it during Black Friday sales when I first saw it instead of waiting for pre-Christmas 50% markup...
