Botley The Robot Coding Activity Set
Introduce children to coding without a screen in sight. This complete 77-piece Botley set is a hands-on introduction to programming for ages 5 and up. Children sequence steps on the remote programmer, press transmit and watch their robot roll, turn, detect obstacles and follow lines. Problem-solving, logic and critical thinking, all built through play.
Coding becomes playful, practical and wonderfully hands-on with Botley the Coding Robot. Designed to introduce children to early STEM learning without screens, Botley helps young learners explore coding concepts through movement, sequencing and interactive challenges.
Ready to use straight from the box, this bumper 77-piece set is packed with exciting accessories that encourage children to experiment, investigate and problem-solve independently. Children can use the easy-to-operate remote programmer to code Botley’s movements step by step, creating routes, avoiding obstacles, following lines and completing fun challenges along the way. Botley supports early programming skills through simple logical commands including forwards, backwards, left turns, right turns, loops and object detection. As children test and adjust their sequences, they naturally develop critical thinking, perseverance and reasoning skills through active play.
The included coding cards and obstacle course accessories encourage planning and prediction, helping children visualise pathways before transmitting their code. With detachable robot arms, line-following features and hidden interactive functions to discover, Botley keeps children engaged while building confidence in STEM learning. Perfect for classroom investigations, group activities and independent exploration, Botley brings coding to life in a fun and approachable way for young learners.
