Product Description

Learn to code with Huey, your color-sensing robot pal. This kit offers kids a hands-on, screen-free introduction to the world of robotics and coding. With a built-in color sensor, Huey navigates around maps that you create using 81 puzzle-shaped tiles. Huey recognizes the colors of the 32 coding discs, which tell it whether to turn right, turn left, or continue straight. Huey makes fun sounds and movements as it travels around the map, revving its engine as it gets started, and doing a little dance when it reaches home. Huey can be muted for quiet play. Build one of the 18 maps included in the full-color, 16-page challenge book and figure out where to place the coding discs to help Huey find its way home. Make sure to watch out for the red ghosts! If you hit one, you’ll have to debug your code and try again. There are four levels of challenges, which are appropriate for kids ages 5 and up. The size of the map grows with the difficulty of the challenge. Beginner maps use nine map tiles, while advanced ones use all 81 tiles! You can also create your own maps and then challenge your friends to solve them. The possibilities are virtually infinite! Learn about how Huey’s color sensor works in the full-color, 4-page instruction manual. A bonus online challenge book includes more than 40 additional challenges — 60 challenges in all! Can you solve them all? Huey does not require a computer, tablet, or smartphone to operate.

About us

Thames & Kosmos was founded in 2001 by a science museum director and her son, who saw the great need and demand for better science education materials — resources for parents and their children that are more engaging, more effective, more relevant, and more fun. Thames & Kosmos operates as the exclusive arm of parent company, Franckh-Kosmos Verlags KG — Kosmos for short — based in Stuttgart, Germany. Founded in 1822, Kosmos operated solely as a book publisher until the 1920s, when the company published its first science kits aimed at explaining the world of science to children and young adults by bringing it to life with hands-on experiments.

    Fun Puzzle Challenge Game
    4 Stars
    Fun Puzzle Challenge Game
    Huey is a line-tracking robot. It does not do anything else so the code learning aspect is fairly simplistic. There are set commands programmed into Huey based on color sensing. Therefore, this is more of a puzzle game than actively programming. In the box you get Huey and a stack of puzzle pieces. Huey is not run using treads despite its appearance. Instead there are two small wheels on the underside of the bot along with the color sensor. Huey runs on batteries and is not rechargeable. The tracks are made of a thin puzzle stock card board. Included with the manual is a challenge book that provides tracks with empty command pieces and a key with the commands needed to solve the puzzle. There are 18 puzzles in the challenge book and another 40 online. It is a fun puzzle game that you can play with your kids, which includes a robot that helps show you if you solved it correctly by traveling the path that you have constructed. It is a completely independent game that doesn't require external input from a computer or smart phone. You would only need a device if you want to access the 40 additional puzzles. Overall, once you come to terms that there is no programming really involved and that it is actually just a puzzle game it is still fun. The puzzles get progressively more challenging and can keep the interest of a child that enjoys playing puzzle games. The use of the fun robot that helps you debug your solutions keeps the game interesting for a range of ages.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Teaches STEM in a fun way for smaller kids
    Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2022
    The earlier you introduce information to kids, the easier it will be for them to learn more complex applications with that knowledge. This cute robot with his basic coding and vibrant shell is perfect for younger kids. They'll learn problem solving, colors, matching puzzle pieces, teamwork and so much more. Every school should have one for their science program and parents should have it to play while learning. My son was in a robotics club and the first competition was building and coding a robot to do exactly this. I was thrilled to see it available in a form suited for smaller kids. You have to start early to give your kid a headstart.
    Thank you for reading, I hope you found this helpful.
