As many schools have moved to distance learning for the remainder of the school year, homes have become centers of learning for millions of students around the United States and many parts of the world. STEM — which stands for science, technology, engineering, and math — has become a major focus in many schools as they prepare students for life and careers in the 21st century. Sphero has recently released the Sphero Mini Activity Kit to help introduce and teach important STEM concepts and skills right in the home.

What Is the Sphero Mini Activity Kit?

Sphero is known for its spherical robots that can be programmed to roll around and do different functions. The Sphero Mini Activity Kit features the Sphero Mini, which is about the same size as a golf ball, as well as a number of other items including activity cards and objects with which the Sphero Mini can interact. The Sphero Mini Activity kit sells for $79.99 and can be purchased directly from Sphero as well as other retailers. It is appropriate for those 8 years and up, though younger children could use it with the help of an adult or older child.
