Coding Critters Go-Pets - Scrambles the Fox
Discover the basics of coding without screens, apps, or complicated tech —just playful imagination, hands-on fun, and a sprinkle of logical thinking.
This clever little fox follows black-line paths whenever the “on” button is switched on. Kids can build their own winding routes by connecting the path tiles so the black line stays unbroken, and then watch Scrambles scamper along the trail. As kids experiment with left turns, right turns, and straight paths, they’re also exploring the same sequencing and problem-solving skills used in block-based coding on computers and tablets.
- You can also create your own custom fox trail by drawing a black line (between 3 and 8 mm thick) on white paper. Scrambles will happily follow that path as well.
- The adorable fox needs your child’s help to play its way through the charming storybook included in the set.
- The included storybook features story-based challenges designed to spark imagination and build problem-solving skills. Children solve the tasks by arranging the path tiles correctly.
- Includes: a colourful storybook, 16 cardboard coding puzzle tiles, Scrambles the Fox, and a quick-start guide in French, English, German, and Spanish.
- Requires 4 LR44 batteries (not included)
Builds an early understanding of coding logic, sequencing, and how technology responds to commands and instructions.
What makes this product special
Do you know what STEM means, and why most kids learn better when school subjects mix and mingle?
Read all about STEM, STEAM, and STREAMright here on our blog.Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with
