Robot Control is a great toy for children from 8 to 14 years, mainly boys and their fathers - the one can hardly deter mitzubauen. Our son plays actually no longer with Lego, but with robot-control he was immediately there. The instructions are 20 different models for reverse engineering and the necessary plastic parts (gears, rods, etc.). Chance need normal household items such as balloon, paper cups. In addition, 3 motors are included, a battery holder and a remote control. It needs 5 AA batteries for operation - if there is the set for Christmas, one gives this best to allow the child to the test his robot not until 27.12. will have to wait. The operating instructions are a lot of information on the use of robots in real life. The instructions for building the robot initially lists everything you needed. Then the robot is assembled step by step. The guidance is not always clear, but what tinkering without tinkering? So must only once be given why the robot does not work as it should. This is so exciting that our son, contrary to expectations was not frustrated and stopped, but has to considered. The pity is that you can only ever have a robot in action. Real robots there are, of course, not that you build there, but remote-controlled machines, go with which one z. B., steer, raise, lower, can be pushed together. This set comes on Christmas or birthday guaranteed no boredom.
