What age range is Tobbie the Robot suitable for?

Tobbie is recommended for ages 8 and up, but is equally suitable for older kids and adults. Some children may find parts difficult to cut and construct and adult help may be of assistance here.

Do I need any additional tools or is everything in the box?

We recommend a few additional tools to help with the construction of Tobbie - diagonal cutters, precision posi screwdriver and 3 AAA batteries.

What functions does Tobbie have?

Tobbie has two main modes: "Follow Me," where he follows objects or people, and "Explore," where he navigates around obstacles independently.

Can Tobbie be reprogrammed or customised?

Sorry, Tobbie isn’t programmable but has the built-in modes above that offer interactive play and a basic introduction to robotics.

What STEM areas does Tobbie help children learn about?

Tobbie introduces kids to foundational concepts in robotics, engineering, and problem-solving. By assembling and interacting with Tobbie, children develop hands-on skills in design, logic, and spatial awareness, making it an ideal STEM learning tool.
