My Project

"Batteries not included" are words that parent's and teacher's don't like to see on a box! Most toys and objects that kids like to play with don't come with batteries!

I'm asking for an abundance of batteries so my students will be able to use the robots and STEM toys in my room without worrying about the batteries dying!

My students love learning code with the robots. The robots also teach my students problem solving skills and how to work with others.

I would also like to add the "Graffiti Robots" for my students to use at the art station. This would give them a new way to express their creativity!
