It’s difficult to tear the kids away from screens nowadays. But with the SunFounder Nano DIY 4-DOF Robot Kit, they’ll instantly forget their online games. This kit lets your kids build an adorable robot, while also teaching them about programming. It’s fun for adults, too. You can grab the kit now for $42.50 with coupon code “GIFTSHOP15” (Orig. $59.99) at 9to5Toys Specials.
This goofy little droid goes by the name of Sloth, but he’s no slowcoach. Powered by the supplied SunFounder Nano board, the bot can walk around the table and bust a few moves. In addition, Sloth can react to your gestures and avoid obstacles, thanks to an ultrasonic sensor.
The kit includes all the components you will need for building your bot. If you prefer, you can use your own Arduino to program Sloth. This also opens up Scratch, the visual programming software for kids. Rather than staring at lines of code, they can program their little bot with drag-and-drop commands.
There are several models of robot you can build with this kit, meaning the enjoyment will last into the New Year.
Normally $59.99, the SunFounder Nano kit is now just $42.50 with coupon code: GIFTSHOP15.
