Trying to learn how to code or program used to be a highly frustrating endeavor. However, now you can use an app on your phone to do it by playing with Sphero SPRK+. This little robot inside a sphere is scratch-resistant, water-resistant, and can teach you how to program whether you’re just getting started, or already a pro. You can run programs from the app, or using your new know-how to build your own instructions telling Sphero what to do.
Programming comes in three forms, and you can use Javascript, draw and drive commands or scratch blocks that tell Sphero how to respond. The way the app is set up, there is a progression in learning, so your kids are never confused about what comes next. Command your robot to follow a specific path, drive through a maze, and plenty more. With the Sphero Edu app, there is plenty to learn and have fun with, in the process.
