Unboxing
The unboxing for Ozobot was extremely easy. It is very carefully packaged and easy to open with a simple snip of a tape closer. Inside the box you find Ozobot, instruction manuals, interactive pages and two wearable covers to put on your Ozobot robot. Also included are 4 colored markers used to program and interact with the Ozobot.
The Playtime Experience
The Ozobot Starter Pack, Programmable Robot Toy was easy to get started with. The instructions are easy to follow and teach you how the Ozobot works. Essentially, the Ozobot robot works by reading lines of color. It will follow solid lines of color like a track and can read and reflect the color he “sees” with his little light. Certain sequences of color combinations will inspire Ozobot to do things like go faster or slower, do a u-turn, or stop completely.
The interactive pages are great because they teach the color combinations and encourage you to fill in blacks on the pages. There is also an option to create your own path for Ozobot to follow which is great.
Things I Liked
I love that Ozobot can read colors on the page beneath him and follow them. It was very neat to watch what the different combinations tell Ozobot to do and I loved experimenting with it. The interactive pages were great to keep things fun and entertaining.
Things I Didn't Like
I can’t complain about anything during my play time with the Ozobot Starter Pack, Programmable Robot Toy . I think everything worked very well and I found no problems or concerns during my play experience.
Appropriate Ages
The Ozobot Start Pack is recommended for players over the age of 6 years old. I would definitely keep this away from young children since many of the pieces are small and can present a choking hazard.
Final Note
I absolutely loved the Ozobot Starter Pack, Programmable Robot Toy. It is one of the coolest robotics toys I have had the chance to play with. I love that it doesn’t need an app or a computer and the technology is both advanced and simple at the same time. I love the interactive pages and how they teach you to interact with Ozobot. I also love that this is just the starter pack and there are option for more play time and fun.
