Meet Blue-Bot, the Bee-Bot with a Bluetooth connection! It operates just like Bee-Bot, making it easy for students to get started right away. But, connect to it remotely and Blue-Bot reveals extra capabilities that develop even more skills.
The Blue Connection bundle pairs Blue-Bot with a TacTile Code Reader. This hands-on, screen-free remote control brings a new level of excitement to the coding process.
Instead of pressing Blue-Bot's buttons, students place command tiles on the TacTile Code Reader, then press its Send button. Blue-Bot follows the commands in order, even from a distance. Students learn how to debug their code—just swap or replace tiles and try again if Blue-Bot doesn't do what they want.
Blue-Bots controlled remotely can make 45° and 90° turns as well as execute loops: repeated sets of commands. Students can now explore different angles and design more complex routes. Challenge them to create polygons with up to 8 sides with just a few commands using loops.
The standard Blue Connection bundle includes:
The Extension Tile Pack (25 tiles) is now included Free in the Blue Connection bundle for a limited time. These extra tiles for 45° turns, pause, and repeat provide powerful additions to the coding experience..
Add more TacTile Code Readers to the bundle at a discount and link up to three together to create longer programs (up to 30 commands).
Read tips for using the TacTile Code Reader with Blue-Bot and Tuff-Bot.
This special bundle is available through 12/31/25, so take the next coding step with your students now!
