Learning Resources Coding Critters: Pair-a-Pets, STEM toy, ages 4-10, learn introductory coding concepts

The Coding Critters Playful Kittens from Learning Resources is a set designed especially for little ones just discovering coding concepts. Adopt these cute animals and let the fun begin: the adorable kittens will teach children primary STEM concepts through interactive games and many challenges. It is the first game where primary coding notions meet elements of the STEM paradigm, meaning experiments with everyday items to help little ones easily understand different phenomena and concepts.

A major advantage is that the set does not require a laptop, computer, tablet, or mobile phone to be used. It is easy to use and familiarizes little ones with primary coding notions, contributing to the development of analytical and critical thinking, problem-solving, and the improvement of spatial awareness. Use the included activity book to have a blast with the cute kittens, Scamper and Sneaker.

Follow the instructions and see if you can program Scamper to play hide-and-seek, catch the butterfly on the special kitten toy, or catch little Sneaker as she slides down the slide. The kittens are attracted to each other through their noses. In addition to the proposed challenges, you can use the set to invent your own coding games and much more.

In coding mode, press the directional buttons on the kitten's back to begin entering a coding sequence of up to 30 steps, with each step measuring approximately 10.2 cm. The cute animals can also be used as interactive toys: press Scamper's nose to enter play mode, where you can feed, pet, or play with her, make her dance, or sing a fun song. The game can be used together with the Coding Critters Playful Pups (code LER3080), Coding Critters Playful Dinos (code LER3082), and Coding Critters Playful Bunnies (code LER3089), which are sold separately.
