The right and left buttons turn the rover 90 degrees in either direction. Includes several example challenges that involve entering a sequence to reach the space rock without crashing into the astronaut. Up to 100 steps can be entered in a single sequence! Create obstacles for the rover by using various household objects and school supplies to navigate around and avoid.

Category Description for Space Rover Coding Sets
A great option for introducing the concept of coding to young children, these space rover kits involve entering a sequence of directions on the rover’s wand to navigate around obstacles and collect the space rock or flag. The user must correctly enter the code or the rover will crash into an obstacle, leading straight back to the drawing board. Each kit includes cards to help the user keep track of which directions they’ve entered in a sequence. Once the featured challenges have been completed, the user can create their own obstacles using household objects or provided materials. These kits don’t require any screen use!
