Review on Unlock the Magic of Coding with the Kano Disney Frozen Coding Kit! by Mark Jefferson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Cool concept but back to the drawing board

Got this as a Christmas present for my son, he's 7 years old so it was somewhere between that and Star Wars. I figured Frozen would be something that could entertain my son or daughter, so we settled on that. I did my best and bought a new tablet to make sure the screen size was adequate and the old tablet was too old for the needs. In any case, this article was definitely not intended for a seven-year-old child. It's not very convenient and the instructions are almost useless. Once you set it up and signed into the app (make sure you pick the right app), you're on your own and it's not easy to figure out. My son played with him for about an hour before he got really upset, I tried to help him and couldn't understand why we were struggling. I think this product really needs more work, either with more instructions or maybe create something that the child can get to learn from. My nine year old was given a Harry Potter wand and seemed a lot less upset, but he also seemed to spend more time designing.
