Equipped with a gyroscope, accelerometer, and colorful LED lights, this educational coding robot is more than a robot toy. And with an interchangeable shell, Sphero Mini can be customized to suit your mood!

EXPANSIVE ACTIVITY LIBRARY: The free Sphero Edu app offers an array of activities that teach computer science concepts and enhances learning in core subjects like math, science, and ELA, making it easy for educators to incorporate STEAM into their curriculum. In the Sphero Play App (recommended for home), you can use Mini a game controller for arcade-style games..

PACKED WITH TECH: Sphero Mini contains a gyroscope, motor encoders, and accelerometer, as well as a bright, colorful LED to add an extra layer of excitement to the learning process. 

TABLETOP FRIENDLY:  Mini is small enough for tabletop learning but sturdy enough to roll around on the floor. Learners can easily maneuver the robots around their desks or workspaces, encouraging hands-on learning and interaction in a space-efficient manner.

EXCITING ACCESSORIES:  Mini comes with cones and pins that can be used to create a range of engaging activities, from navigating mazes to robot races!
