Dash & Dot
What I am: Dash and Dot
Where I am: Main and Grand Libraries
What I do: Dash and Dot teach code in kid speak for kids ages 6-11. A child’s first real robot friend. The physical robot comes with access to virtual Dash and Dot robots that kids can program in a rich 3-D environment on screen. They can be used independently, but are more fun together!
What I can teach you: Explore loops, events, conditions, and sequences and see how they result in real-life movements. Problem solving skills and coding, creativity.
I'm recommended for ages: Ages 6 and up
Both need to be charged before use and require an iPad (Library iPads available for TLC use). There are many accessories for these brothers including Lego connectors, a xylophone attachment, mobile phone holder, and more!
