Coding Critters - Ranger & Zip

A playful and completely screen-free way for little learners to explore the basics of coding.

This charming set includes the adorable dog Ranger and his tiny sidekick, Zip. 

This 22-piece set includes a doghouse, toys, bones, and much more.

As you read the included storybook together, kids can help Ranger and Zip follow along with the story by pressing the little directional arrow buttons on Ranger’s back. 

Each button press moves Ranger approximately 10 cm. 

Can Ranger find Zip when he’s playing hide-and-seek? Can he nudge the ball or send Zip zooming down the slide?  Work out the right button sequence — maybe “forward, forward, left, left, forward” or another combination — and guide the little Critters exactly where you want them to go.

Ranger also has a fun “Play Mode,” where he can dance a silly dance, enjoy a tasty snack, or curl up for a little nap. 

Requires 3 AAA batteries (not included).

 

The activity is great for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• This activity gives your child practical experience with cause/effect through play.

Measures 10,2 x 7.
Suitable for children aged 4 yrs. to 10 yrs.

Science is not necessarily something difficult and complicated which adults mess around with in distant laboratories or offices. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math)- based play activities and experiments are are proof of this. The conventional boundaries between natural science, technology, engineering, and mathematics are erased, and your child gets to be at the centre of the learning process through experiments and play.

Do you know Learning Resources?

Providing children with materials that make learning fun is essential for Learning Resources - as their name implies.

In particular, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) is a focal point at Learning Resources. For instance, your child can learn to build robots, code, do experiments, and explore their world. For educators and teachers, Learning Resources is a learning goldmine. Sorting animals, math games, and coding dinosaurs can really add some fun to the teaching.
