Magnificent!
I am so impressed with my five year old's ability to remember a sequence after playing with Blazer the Dragon! When we first got this coding critter he played with it constantly for a few days - before school, after school, it really was his best thing! But then it got packed away (probably in one of Mummy's cleaning frenzies)! A few weeks later we got Blazer out again and M amazed me by remembering loads of the commands. He remembered code sequences for spells, like how to make Blazer dance. I'm so impressed. A great early intro to coding!

Absolutely fantastic early coding toy!..
My 4 year old absolutely loves dinosaurs.. dragons..etc.. so I immediately knew that this would be right up his street!.. This fantastic coding critter comes with lots of accessories including a catapult that can throw fire, and a big bright red ball that you can code the dragon to push! Use the child friendly magic wand to control your critter through the castle and around objects. This lovely set also comes with a fantastic little book to teach your child how to perform 'magic spells' and get your critter to make noises, light up and dance! There are so many ways to play with this, and all the while, your children will be learning all about coding in such a fun way! My 4 year old took to this coding critter straight away, and was immediately sending it in circles and getting it to push the ball!.. The set is well made and robust, which is definitely a must in this house, and stores away nicely in its strong cardboard box. If your children love coding, or want to learn in a fun way.. this is definitely a must buy!

hours of play!!
I got this toy to go with our huge collection of coding critters - they are amazing!! Theres lots of things in the box so we spent some time setting everything up, adding stands and stickers (don't forget to buy batteries) and laying it all out. Before we used the book they wanted to just play, my 7 year old soon worked out how it all worked, took a little longer for my 4 year old, she found it tricky to understand that the buttons work in the way the toy is going not in the direction she is facing, but got the hang of it soon enough. Simply, you use the wand to set the instructions, it had 4 arrow buttons and a 'go' button in the middle. You can press the directions as many times as you like before pressing go, they love working out how to get their toys around objects. The set also comes with a smaller animal and play equipment for it, the animals are really cute. There is another magic button on the wand that does other things, the set comes with a book to explain these. It also makes cute and funny noises while in play, and you can use the direction counters to plan and test your instructions. These have been well played with, my daughters absolutely love them!! I also really like that they are so educational, they are learning so much though play which is always a bonus.

Love it for my class- How do you get the Treasure Chest open
Works great. My grade 1 class loves using it. So much so, that we had to make a sign-out for it. The instructions are pretty straight forward but we can not figure out how to get the treasure chest to open?? I was going to put 4 stars because I can not figure out how to open the treasure chest but the kids wanted me to make it 5 stars anyways.
