The Ozobot (ozobot.com) is a small robot that is great for kids who like coding. You draw thick lines of color. Then, you place it at the beginning of the lines. All the lines need to be connected. The Ozobot will follow them. There are different patterns of colored lines. Each pattern does different things such as fast, jump forward, spin and zigzag.

In the beginning, some of the commands were hard but once you knew the codes it got easier. The lines have to be thick or else it won’t work. Markers don’t come with Ozobot.
