Thank you UBTECH’s JIMU Robot for sponsoring this post. JIMU Robot kits are a fun way to bring robotics into every kid’s day to day. The system relies on three steps: Building, Coding, and Playing. Robot kits from UBTECH offer a wide variety of challenging builds for the curious children in your lives. With JIMU Robot, kids 8+ can engage in STEM learning with their award-winning interactive robotic building block system!
Is it me or as kids get older, it gets harder to find toys that keep their attention? My oldest is 9 and I have the hardest time finding toys or activities that keep his interest. When I am looking for items for him, I want the activity or toy to be age appropriate and challenge him in some way. His mind is still growing and finding a toy that is challenging and gets his mind going is exactly what I look for.
When looking for age appropriate toys I came across UBTECH Robotics. Their JIMU Robots are an encompassing, exciting line of robots that kid 8+ can build, code, and play with. The two JIMU Robots I was looking at for my son were the FireBot kit and ChampBot kit. In the end I decided on the FireBot Kit because my son loves the color red and a red FireBot was something I knew he would enjoy.
JIMU Robots teach your kids STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) skills. These skills are ever more important in a technology-oriented world. JIMU Robot kits help introduce fundamental STEM concepts in a way that’s creative and fun. As I’ve shared before my kid’s school focuses on STEM based learning and the ability to bring those skills home in a new and interactive way makes me feel great as a mom. I know what they see as playtime is so much more.
Now these robots are not just for boys. JIMU Robot kits come in different series to appeal to all types of interests from mythical creatures such as dragons and unicorns to sports-themed competitive robots. My daughter loves watching her brother code his FireBot that I am going to get her the JIMU UnicornBot. I love that they created characters that children across the board are interested in and would love to create. Another reason I love these JIMU robots is kids are not limited to only the robot on the packaging – the sky’s the limit! They encourage kids to create and build their own robot creations.
Giving kids the ability to create something from their imagination is truly special. Another plus is how readily available JIMU Robot kits are. You can find them in store at your local Target and online at Amazon.com, BestBuy.com, Kohls.com, Samsclub.com, Target.com, Walmart.com, and ubtrobot.com.
Once you select the perfect JIMU Robot for the kid in your life and you spend time building it you get to see the true magic happen. After building the robots, kids can control, code, and play with their robots all through our free JIMU app (available on both iOS and Android platforms). Watching them bring their JIMU Robot to life for the first time is something truly special. My son can’t wait to come home from school and play with his FireBot every day.Now you can ignite your child’s passion for robotics and STEM learning with the new FireBot Kit. Transport to a magical world to code actions such as the LED light in FireBot’s snout to glow fiery red or icy blue as its jaw opens or closes, or program the included touch sensor on FireBot’s chest to make the dragon drive fluidly while flapping the impressive, customizable wings.
