My ten year old son is a big fan of building things with his hands. He especially likes the Snap Circuit sets (like this one), which emphasize STEM skills. When I found out that Elenco, the company behind Snap Circuits has a new line of Teach Tech robots, I knew they would be something he would be interested in.

Elenco sent us Zivko the Robot to test and review. Zivko the Robot is a Hexiped robot that introduces kids to Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology.

When we opened up the box, I have to admit that the amount of little parts seemed a little overwhelming to me. However, n was up to the challenge and went right to work. He was able to put Zivko together without my help, but it was a challenge for him (which is a good thing!) This kit is recommended for ages 10 and up, and I can see why.

Zivko operates in two modes, “follow” or “explore”. When Zivko is in follow mode, it will follow you around like a pet. When Zivko is in explore mode, it is able to explore on its own and avoid obstacles along the way. With all of its lights and sounds, Zivko does have a personality of his own. I like how the learning continues even after Zivko is fully assembled.

The Zivko The Robot is available on Amazon, along with other members of the Elenco Teach Tech Robot family. Gift-giving season is just around the corner, so keep these robots in mind for the STEM-loving kids you know!

  1. I like them all but especially the “green” line of robots. I would gift the Rivet Rex (dinosaur) to my grand-girl who loves dinosaurs and would love the techy gift. I always gave Christmas gifts that were kits to put together and learn to my children growing up but they were not robotic back in those days.

  2. I like the Rivet Rex. This robot will help my daughter who teaches 1st grade at Beverly Mathis. Her students Love tech items!

  3. Cameron says he would like the King Lizard Robot Kit. Thanks for introducing me to this product. There will certainly be one under the tree at Christmas! Thanks, also, for the super giveaway opportunity.
