Robot Turtles Review

Robot Turtles is a colorful introduction to coding.  The game is learning basic flow charting with directional cards.  Robot Turtles would be great for learning left and right.  The directions threw us at first appearing very difficult.  Jumping right in and reading the directions when we had a question was much more to our liking.  We finished our first game rather quickly.  I asked if we should play again and was surprised by his negative answer.

Since I was still reading the directions, I found the game included hurdles.  Well, that gave him an incentive to play another round.  The little booger beat me!

Remember, I thought the directions were complicated initially, but the directions are actually very good because they walk you from a very basic game then add the more difficult elements of coding.  The beauty is the kids don’t have a clue they are learning coding.  Whew!

As we review more and more products, the kiddos surprise me.  Donald  told me the game would be best for math for 3rd grade and up.  I handed him the box clearly stating ages 4+.

We’re continuing to work our way through the levels of difficulty.  Robot Turtles has been placed on the “Show and Tell” list.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
