Find more activity ideas below:
- Make it yours: Design a mat of your own. This could be a dinosaur land, your town, your school, a home or maybe a favourite story such as we're going on bear hunt. Once you've made your own mat you can snap a picture of it and use it in the Blue-Bot app. - Challenge Yourself: Use the Blue-Bot Shape mat. Can you make Blue-Bot visit all the green shapes or all the circles? Use the 1 x" 20 Number Track mat. If Blue-Bot starts on zero and moves 4 steps forward, then 1 step back. Where will it end up? - Trip to the seaside: Use the Blue-Bot Seaside Mat. Ask the children to decide what Blue-Bot should do at the seaside should Blue-Bot go to the funfair, swim in the sea or have an ice cream? If Blue-Bot starts at the campsite, what sequence is required for Blue-Bot to reach his destinations. - Program it: Complete a challenge by using the Blue-Bot app to create a step-by-step program. Once the program is finished, press Go to run the whole program through. Use the pen tool in the app to see where you've been. PLEASE NOTE: Download the app to control Blue-Bot from the Apple Story for iOS devices and from the Google Play Store for Android devices. Blue-Bot is compatible with any iOS device with version 3.0/4.0+ EDR Bluetooth (e.g. iPad3 and later, iPhone 4s and later) please check the device specifications to ensure it is compatible.
