Fisher-Price Think & Learn Master Moves Expansion Pack Review (DPP37)

Though a bit pricy, it works as advertised. I bought several "add on" pieces to make an extra long codeapillar. It was only after putting everything together and it not working that i read it would not work with more than 15 segments. So much for a long codeapillar. Still, a fun item for my 5-year-old son to better understand directions. -Y. Brendon

Learning Resources Code & Go Robot Mouse Activity Set

This is a great game, and it really is a good introduction not only to programming, but to logic (and math) - to the idea of algorithms in general. It also teaches kids the idea of "following the rules" and "what a mouse can and cannot understand" - the kind of commands it takes. For the younger kids, even setting up the board as in the picture, is a challenge in itself, and a very useful challenge in maps/spacial orientation at that. . The mouse itself is very cute; the commands are easy to implement. . I did take one star off for a couple of minor annoyances:. - the mouse doesn't always precisely execute each turn, which means it may end up going off course. It's not so bad as to affect the algorithm unless you have many-many moves, but it means the mouse can run into the purple walls when there's a tight turn. . - whenever the mouse finds "cheese", it stops executing instructions, even if it had a further sequence programmed. I can see why they made it this way, but it also makes it impossible to program the "go there, get the cheese and bring it back here" kind of programs. . - kids need to remember to press "erase memory" in order to program a new sequence. I do understand this choice though - otherwise there would be no memory at all if you think too long between adding new instructions, and that would be even more annoying. . On the plus side, this is one of those games where the "puzzles" are not limited by the number of instruction cards. It's very easy for a parent (or for a kid themselves) to make up their own puzzles. . Our youngest one just turned 3, and he's still struggling with the concept of programming the mouse, but he likes it and is definitely getting some idea. Our next oldest is 8, and she's already programming (in scratch and trying out python), so this is "too simple" for her, but the mouse is cute enough to keep both her attention and her 11 year old's brother, and make them interested in playing with their younger brother. . On a funny note, our youngest was actually quite hesitant about touching the mouse at first (he was a bit scared of it). And even now, when it's running, he makes sure to get out of the way.

Build your maze, and then use the coding cards to create a step-by-step path for the programmable robot mouse.

I am so excited to be giving this to my granddaughter. The best stem product for a 6 yr old. She will have to count and enter (click), but she will get to move around while she is programming the robotic mouse to run a maze she will set up, and can change over and over again. -Notice from F.

This game is so wonderful. My daughter is 6 and has so much fun playing the cards as well as coming up with ways on her own. I couldn't be more impressed with a learning game.

- Q. RitaIt is a good playing and learning set, well working and easy to use. 4 starts instead of 5 because modern kids are generally so spoiled with their excessive number of toys and games that they need extra attractive entertainment to get interested and return to the game. In this very well working and well designed set, mouse is going to the cheese and makes some fun sounds, but need some more rewarding and attractive details to keep kids interested. Even if these extra details were just dumb plastic decorations, maybe they could keep the kid come back more to this very good developmental activity.

This is a cool game overall and i enjoy watching our 5 year old troubleshoot different problems. This is a great stem toy and overall it is a quality item. . The good:. Quality of cards and all plastic pieces are nice. Everything fits well in the box. Plenty of room for cleaning up. Cards are nice and big. . Few small things though:. The green tiles do not fit well together, they can easily be misaligned and this creates bumps in the board that can affect the mouse. The mouse itself runs well and the sounds are great but it is difficult sometimes to align it properly in the beginning. My 5 year old can have the right code put in but if the mouse is not dead center on the beginning tile it will be slightly off at the end and won't get the cheese. This was very frustrating. . Overall we are very happy and would buy again.

This is an absolutely essential piece for the code-a-pillar that it doesn't normally come with. It makes him turn in a complete circle. We also have and recommend the master moves pack as well as the silly light's and sounds. Any questions please ask, thank you.

- N. EdnaMy daughter & son (ages 2 & 4) have had a lot of fun with this code-a-pillar. There are so many options for controlling the code-a-pillar. We bought the whole code-a-pillar set for them for christmas and bought a couple add-on pieces. This particular piece codes the toy to do a 360-degree turn. . Lights flash and music plays while the code-a-pillar is going. When the code-a-pillar gets to this particular unit in the sequence, it will turn in a large circle (360 degrees) and then perform the next action in the sequence based on what the next segment is programmed to do. . Lots of fun. They really like taking them apart and putting them together in different ways to see how it changes the actions of the code-a-pillar. These are easy to snap together and take apart for re-arranging. This is great when trying to teach your kids to understand how a sequence works.

This was part of a code-a-pillar gift for a four year old, but the two year old enjoys it too. Hours of play and fun.
