KIBO

Finally, a screen-free robot appropriate for your young learners!

Meet KIBO – The playful and creative STEAM coding robot! With KIBO, young learners in PreK-5th grade create, design, decorate, and bring their own robot to life with screen-free, hands-on programmable robotics.

The KIBO robot kit is based on 20 years of child development research and lets young learners build, program, decorate, and run their own robots. KIBO is used in over 60 countries with proven efficacy in helping kids learn STEAM—and getting them excited about it!  KinderLab offers a complete suite of curriculum to integrate STEAM elements into any subject.

According to EdTech Digest, cross-curricular STEAM lessons help students recover lost ground in core academic areas and inspire them to practice SEL skills like collaboration and teamwork.  KIBO was featured in this news segment, “Children use building blocks to learn how to code“! You can see the screen-free, fun and educational KIBO robot in action in a classroom at the McKendree Elementary School in Lawrenceville, GA.

STEAM learning has never been so much fun!

When children code with KIBO they are learning invaluable skills that will lead them on the path to success in science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) skills, and future careers. As they learn all these coding skills, they will think it is just play!

Specific, powerful, and positive learning outcomes when working with KIBO include:

  • Improved sequencing ability in early childhood;
  • Mastery of foundational coding and robotics skills;
  • STEAM success: Integration of robotics across curricula; and
  • Positive impact on underrepresented groups in STEM fields.
