Interactive Coding & Construction
MICROBIT Educational Development Totem crab kit brings robotics and coding to life for young learners. Designed around the BBC micro:bit interface and the innovative BinaryBots sensor board, children can build and program their own Totem Crab, controlling its motorized pincer, LEDs, light sensor, buzzer, and haptic vibration motor. This hands-on STEM activity encourages problem-solving, creativity, and logical thinking, allowing kids to see their creations move and react in real time. Perfect for boys and girls ages 6 and up, the kit supports both individual and group learning activities.
Engaging Sensor-Based Play
This robot building kit features motion- and emotion-based programming that responds to touch, light, and temperature. With capacitive touch sensor strips, addressable multicolor LEDs, and a vibrating feedback motor, children can experiment with coding to create interactive behaviors. The kids robotics kit includes magnetic components, screws, a unique crab pincer with motor, a BinaryBots sensor board, screwdriver, and instruction book. Children build, code, and observe their crab’s reactions for a complete educational experience.
Key features:
Hands-On Coding Fun: Our Totem Crab is educational robot lets children bring a robotic crab to life with code. Using the BinaryBots sensor board, kids learn programming, STEM principles, and problem-solving by controlling motion, lights, and interactive behaviors in a fun, engaging way.
Motorized Pincer Action: This robotics kit includes a motorized mechanical pincer that can be programmed to move in response to commands. Kids gain hands-on experience with robotics, mechanical systems, and motion control while exploring cause-and-effect through coding.
Sensor-Based Interactivity: This educational toy features motion, light, and touch sensors, allowing the crab to react to its environment. Children can experiment with sensory input, haptic feedback, and interactive programming to understand real-world robotics concepts.
BBC micro:bit Compatibility: This stem robot kit integrates with the BBC micro:bit (sold separately) and the BinaryBots sensor board. Kids can program the crab’s LEDs, buzzer, vibra motor, and capacitive touch sensors to create unique behaviors and interactive sequences.
STEM Learning Experience: Our Totem Crab combines coding, robotics, and hands-on construction into a beginner-friendly STEM toy. Ideal for ages 6+, it encourages creativity, critical thinking, and collaborative learning, making it perfect for school projects or group activities.
