DIZZY-TRON (£44.99) and software/mats (£89.99), www.hope-education.co.uk
Dizzy Tron, the new programmable robot from Hope Education, is suitable for use with children aged four and upward and can be used for directional language, early programming and as a learning aid for numerous curricular areas such as maths and English.
With a memory of up to 50 steps, Dizzy, claims Hope, 'is by far the most advanced programmable robot on the market'.
Other features include a removable remote control which has a reach of up to 30 feet, a drawing feature for tracing steps and drawing of simple geometric shapes. Dizzy interacts with whiteboards (software sold separately), where his movements can be replicated on screen so children can play back their activity.
