The Ozobot Bit can also work just like the previous Ozobots and it can read lines and follow them, execute commands that are color based and much more. I was excited about this toy because I want Eva to get interested in coding and learning some basics of programming because that will be important not only for her future job prospects but for right now to think about problem solving. The OzoBlockly site was great for showing her how to create a simple executable set of commands and then see what she programmed right away. Continue reading Coding with the Ozobot Bit →
