The Discovery Solar Robot Creation Kit comes with 190 easy -build pieces and is powered by the sun. No batteries are needed. With this one kit your child can build 12 different robots and explore the world of engineering. In addition to the 190 pieces, you’ll find custom decals and an instruction manual too.
Children can build solar powered robots that walk, crawl, roll or float in water! They will learn engineering skills and teaches children about solar energy in a fun & creative way. The kit would be appropriate for both boys and girls ages 8 and over.
The robots that you can build have super-fun names:
Puppy-Bot, Surf-Bot, Beetle-Bot, Crab-Bot, Buggy-Bot, Zombie-Bot, Slither-Bot, Quad-Bot, Roly-Poly Bot, Row-Bot, Turtle-Bot and Walker-Bot.
Our 9 1/2 year old granddaughter will be staying with us for 9 days over the Christmas holiday and school break. My husband has already told me that they will be building some of the robots from this kit. It’s a nice kit that the two of them can do together. Gotta love family bonding time and its educational too!
Once they get a robot fully built I will come back to update my post with some photographs and additional information. In the meantime I wanted to get this review published as I think this kit makes the PERFECT holiday gift! You can find the kit at various retailers across the nation and from retailers online.
There is a FREE Discovery #MindBlown App that lets you discover exclusive DIY videos, games and more. You can download it from the App Store or get it on Google Play. You can learn more at DiscoveryMindBlown.com and you can learn more about STEM at DiscoveryEducation.com.

This does sound like the perfect kit for kids ages 8 and up. I know my sons would have loved to have this kit when they were young.
What a super kit and way to spend some time over the school break. I think it is neat that they can build 12 different robots and ways to customize.
I love educational gifts for children. Learning and fun can go together at the same time. Thank you Two Classy Chics for promoting this concept!
What a great kit to learn about different things. For kids? No, I want it.
