Ozobot Evo
Our Verdict: The most creative coding toy available. Screen-free color coding is genius for young children and classroom settings.
The Ozobot Evo is a tiny programmable robot that introduces coding through two unique methods: drawing color-coded lines on paper for screen-free coding, and OzoBlockly for more advanced block-based programming on screen. This dual approach accommodates different learning styles.
Despite its small size, Evo packs Bluetooth connectivity, proximity sensors, and expressive LED lights. The STEAM curriculum library provides hundreds of standards-aligned activities for teachers.
