With the cute robot, you can code, draw, and learn. The sweet robot draws various pre-installed or self-programmed designs and encourages collaborative and continued drawing. It includes 15 double-sided chip cards for learning letters and drawing, a booklet with 40 coding examples, and a pen. Codi recognizes the size of the paper, can hold a pen (7-10 cm in diameter), and responds to the insertion of chip cards as well as the pressing of control buttons. There are three game modes for drawing and coding. In drawing mode, when a chip card is placed in Codi's backpack, it draws the corresponding shape and invites you to join in or continue drawing. In free drawing mode, Codi randomly selects one of 99 designs or games and invites participation. While drawing, interesting facts are shared, and appropriate sound effects are triggered. In coding mode, simple drawings can be programmed by pressing the control buttons. By pressing secret key combinations, Codi surprises with special figures. The 4 LEDs on its face display various facial expressions. It features a child-safe battery compartment, automatic shut-off, and volume control. Demo batteries included. Language: German.
