  KUBO Coding++ Set

  The KUBO Coding++ Set is an add-on for students who have mastered the basics with KUBO and are ready for more advanced computer science ideas. Using the same puzzle-like TagTiles, learners build programs that respond to events, store and change values in variables, and make decisions with if/else conditions, all without a screen. The set contains 44 TagTiles, including variable tiles and operators (equal to, add to, subtract from), greater-than and less-than comparisons, start/end if tiles, true/false tiles, event tiles, 15-degree turn tiles, speed tiles, random and modulator tiles. Students lay the tiles out in sequence, the KUBO robot reads them, and the class immediately sees whether the logic works. The Coding++ Set requires the KUBO Coding Starter Set, which provides the robot and map. Teachers get free access to the KUBO Portal with standards-aligned curriculum materials and onboarding, making it straightforward to extend an existing KUBO program into upper primary grades.

  Tale-Bot Pro Screenless Coding Robot

  Tale-Bot Pro is a screen-free coding robot designed for preschool and early primary classrooms. Children choose a goal on the map, plan the path, then press the colourful command buttons on the robot to enter each step before pressing play to watch it run. A Clear button removes the last command, so mistakes become quick debugging practice. Beyond movement, the robot can draw with markers, sing, dance and play back short voice recordings, which makes it well suited to storytelling and cross-curricular activities. Colour-coded indicators help children follow where they are in a program, and sequences, loops and cause-and-effect are introduced through play. The box includes the robot, a double-sided map (interactive and blank), two washable markers, six accessories such as wings and arms, a challenge booklet, a configuration card, a USB-C cable and a user guide. The rechargeable 1500 mAh battery runs for four hours or more, and the body is made from durable, eco-friendly ABS.

  Tale-Bot Pro Activity Box

  The Tale-Bot Pro Activity Box is an accessory that turns Tale-Bot Pro coding sessions into themed, cross-curricular lessons. Its maps use OID technology that the robot recognises, so as Tale-Bot Pro travels across them it gives real-time voice feedback, plays sounds or carries out actions when it passes over specific spots and stickers. The box contains 10 interactive maps designed for learning to code, together with a blank map and a wide selection of interactive stickers. The themes connect programming with science, English language arts, social studies, math, social-emotional learning and the arts. Because children can place objects, cards and stickers freely, they can also design their own scenes and coding challenges instead of only following ready-made ones. The Activity Box is made to be used with the Tale-Bot Pro robot, which is sold separately, and works well as a learning-centre resource in early years and lower primary classrooms.
