From the moment they spotted the fierce-looking dragon Firebot on the package cover, kids clamored to get started building it. And build it they did, with a high level of focus fueled by anticipation of the rousing adventures that would ensue once Firebot was complete. The free JIMU app made the task all the more enjoyable by displaying easy-to-follow, step-by-step visual instructions from start to finish. Once ready for action, Firebot did not disappoint, rolling rapidly across the floor, spreading and retracting its wings, at times wagging its body like a playful puppy. And let's not forget the exciting fire-breathing effect produced by the RGB LED light in the dragon's mouth! These programmable actions are controlled from within the JIMU app, a versatile resource through which youngsters readily explore coding concepts, rewarded by the immediate changes they are able to effect in the dragon's behavior. The app also contains numerous pre-programmed actions as well as manual controls, so there is no shortage of ways in which to put Firebot through its paces. Endless fun, STEM learning!
