Toy Robot

Solar Powered

EDUCATIONAL AND ENGAGING

Enrich your child’s mind with the interactive challenges of building their own robots! The detailed instructions and variety of building part types will engage children and teach them STEAM logic as they put together complex puzzles and work to problem solve with a blend of critical thinking and creativity.

DIFFERENT VARIATIONS

Build different variations of robots that walk! Our solar robot creation kit is unique from any other toy your child has had!

GREAT FOR LITTLE BUILDERS

With 190 different easy-build pieces, you can build endless variations of robots that walk, roll, or float. Our pieces are designed for small hands and can easily fit together for hours of fun.

SOLAR-POWERED ENGINE

For best results, operate your robot outside in full, direct sunlight. For indoors, a 100w halogen bulb is needed at 4 inches away. Clouds, shade, indirect sunlight, bulbs lower than 100w or fluorescent lights will limit operations. The kit includes a solar panel that powers the positive and negative cables. Children will build a real working solar-powered motor that serves as the motorized foundation for each robot model!

Very hard to assembly
4 Stars
Very hard to assembly
A very cute robot similar to Wall-E. Quickly running in the sun, I managed to start from the light of a flashlight at home. It is interesting to assemble different models. But not everyone works well. VERY TIGHT DETAILS. The assembly process requires a lot of effort, no child can cope with this, you have to use pliers, from which the parts are scratched.
