Sphero Mini Coding Robot Ball
4.6 · 5,267 reviews
A pocket-sized robot ball driven and coded through a free app over Bluetooth. Younger kids can just drive it, but the real value for a tween is the block-based coding mode, which teaches programming logic (loops, conditionals) through games instead of a worksheet.
