Get it coded! - Education and Training

I have been a big fan of Kano for a while and bought this product for my friend's daughter who loves Frozen. She was fascinated by the set and excitedly told her mom and me about everything she had done (and what she plans to do next). I love how accessible Kano makes coding! My friend's daughter has never shown any interest in programming, but it has definitely opened up a whole new world for her! Her mom is so excited she's getting positive screen time.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Nothing

Too advanced for 6 years

Says it's for ages 6+ but my daughter is 6 and I had to write all the code because she didn't understand it. She can't read yet, and I couldn't find a way to read instructions on an iPad, so that was a bummer. You must add this feature for children who have difficulty reading. She loved validating items once I had finished coding them! I'm still playing around with it, but I'm hoping it has a way of manipulating elements without having to code them.

Pros
  • High support and durability scores from testers
Cons
  • Not sure

Bluetooth connection drops a lot

My kids just watched Frozen 2 and they love everything about the movie. They are very happy to open the box and all the materials, including the instructions, are of good quality. It only took my 9 year old a few minutes to assemble the kit. So far, so good. But after installing the application on the iPad, some problems arise: sometimes the Bluetooth connection with the kit is lost, or the application simply freezes, it's not so easy to drag it to the programming panel. I had to quit and…

Pros
  • handy
Cons
  • very expensive

Do not buy! Get the app first!

5 iPads, old and new, and the app was just a blank screen. 1 iPad really booted up to register and was still "frozen". I tested all of the iPads against Kano's requirements and they met or exceeded them. I'm sure it would be a great toy if it worked, but I'm so frustrated, mainly because my daughter chose it and really wanted it, which is junk. Go to the App Store and read app reviews before buying, many get stuck on a white screen. I returned it because I don't want to wait for the app…

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Almost never

Beyond the frustration and total waste or money!

We gave it to my daughter for her 6th birthday because she loves programming and Frozen. This has to be one of the most frustrating games ever. First, it says it's for ages 6 and up, but be aware that it requires LOTS of literature. So if your child is not very good at reading, you will have to spend the whole game with him. Second, the device and app are constantly asynchronous. Either the device is disconnected while the app thinks it's still connected (so you don't get a chance to reconnect)

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
  • There are defects

Very cool to code!

I bought this for my 7 year old and it took us about 30 minutes to complete the steps. Each lesson has a pop-up explaining what to do and why you're doing it. After the planned activities, he switched to the writing sector and began to create his own creations. He needed a bit of help there, but since we worked together it wasn't a problem. The main thing is to pay attention and try to learn while completing tasks. This way you can help your child when they are struggling to create their own…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Hard to say

The application is not easy to download

Once you set it up, it will work fine. It's a bit hard on my daughter who got this for her 8th birthday. There are tutorials that she spends most of her time on as they show exactly what needs to be done to make it work rather than adding your own code. However, I will say that I was in a position where I wanted to return this because I couldn't get the app. We have an 8th gen Fire tablet and the app won't load. It is also not available on the iPhone. I ended up having to download it for…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

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…

Pros
  • Hands Free
Cons
  • Expandable
