What is KIBO?

KIBO is the screen-free robot kit for kids that lets 4- to 7-year-olds create, design, decorate and bring their own robot to life! KIBO is an easy and fun way to bring robotics and coding to your young learners and spark their interest in STEAM.

  • When children code with KIBO they are learning invaluable skills that will lead them on the path for success in science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) skills and future careers. As they learn all these skills, they will think it is just play!
  • Based on 20 years of early child development research, this hands-on educational robot engages young students to learn STEAM concepts through play and creative self-expression.
  • STEAM learning with KIBO is fun, imaginative and easy. Your youngest learners will playfully discover these concepts by coding with wooden building blocks, creating sequences, and learning design processes.
  • Used in 55 countries and tested and approved by thousands of children and their caregivers, KIBO has proven efficacy in helping kids learn STEAM, and getting them excited about it!
 

Imagine and Create with KIBO

Young children learn by doing. KIBO gives your kids the chance to make their ideas physical and tangible—exactly what their young minds and bodies need. And KIBO does all this without requiring screen time from PCs, tablets or smartphones.

KIBO serves as an open platform designed for kids to imagine and create their own robot. Just turn it upside down. See the circuitry? Kids can visibly see that this is the KIBO “brain” and not magic. Just add the wheels with the motors and your KIBO is on the move!

    Kinder Labs introducing KIBO – STEAM based Kit

    KIBO is proudly introduced by Kinder Labs after years in to dedicated research. KIBO is not only safe and easy to learn but it provides kids with an interesting opportunity to learn about input, output, computing and robotics and to be able to make custom projects.

     

    KIBO Kit Details

    There’s one KIBO robot with 18 programming blocks, including 12 parameter cards, 2 wheels, 3 motors, 3 sensors (light, sound, distance sensor), 1 light-bulb output device, and art platforms namely stage support, stage pedestal, rectangular stage and round stage

    Art stage is appreciated by every kid. They love the opportunity to be able to show their creativity, create custom art as per their interest and showcase their unique signature art.

     

    How KIBO works?

    Using a built-in scanner, KIBO is able to scan the codes of different programming blocks. As the KIBO embedded scanner scans the block, the commands of the respective programming block is sent back to robot.

     

    Recommendation of AAP



    Kinder Labs is against providing small kids with age range between 4 -7 with an screen viewing time. So introducing any sort of app for longer screen viewing time was a big no-no. Research by American Academy of Pediatrics proves the same and we wanted to make sure to provide kids with a healthy, safe and intuitive learning experience.
