      • Can my child learn programming with this robot?

        Absolutely. Blockly is drag and drop programming for reader-level kids. Kids can organize blocks to control Dash. 

      • Does this kit include Dot Robots?

        Hi,

        Currently, this kit includes Dash robot only. But, don't worry. Dash robot alone is enough for kids to learn programming.
        LurnBot is considering to add Dot robot to this kit, so you may get a combi of Dash & Dot robots later.

        Thank you.

        Hi,
