Review: Easy code program, easy assemble. - We liked it. We assembled it with my children who are 6 and 5 years old. I helped a few items to assemble. Robot is already installed codes. At the beginning of using, you don't need to make it program. Remote Control is synchronized with the robot. A B C letter represents a different mode. A mode is manual control, b mode is I couldn’t find it because just movingly, c mode is follow the black line. It has website that supports to learn how to code or assemble. It doesn’t has battery that you will need to 4 AA battery for robot and 1 3.0 V flat battery for remote control. I think that battery code is cr2025. If you don’t want to go out for battery. You should write them on your shopping list before assemble. Because you will screw the main board top of the battery. It was great experience for my kids. I consider that I will start to teach coding with it to my kids. I hope that. Then when i saw the coding program, my hopes raised because it is so easy. My son wrote one code for it that I took picture. ## Features - Entry-level Coding Robot Toy: mBot robot kit is an excellent educational robot toys, designed for learning electronics, robotics and computer programming in a simple and fun way.

My kid has easily gotten it to do things, but probably because he uses similar apps/code at school. He really enjoys it. The only downside is that it doesn't always reconnect via Bluetooth on its own and he needs a little help with that. It's perfect for his age (11) and I'd buy again for my other kids. ## Frequently Bought Together - Makeblock mBot Robot Kit, Robotics for Kids Ages 8-12 Learn to Code with Scratch & Arduino, STEM Toys Science Kits for Kids Age 8-12 Boys and Girls Age 8+ - Makeblock Bluetooth Adapter for PC Laptop Computer Pair with mBot/Codey Rockey/Ranger/Ultimate/Starter - Makeblock 3.7V Rechargeable Li-Polymer Battery for mBot Robot Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/14143908-makeblock-mbot-stem-coding-toys-robotics-for-kids-ages-8](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/14143908-makeblock-mbot-stem-coding-toys-robotics-for-kids-ages-8) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-09-04*
