I grew up with Legos and my two young sons have as well. This is our next step to enhancing the endless creative opportunities that come with Legos, and it is fun to be learning it together. The set comes with everything you need to make numerous models for which instructions are included on the software CD. The components themselves are Lego Technics that can be used in conjunctions with any existing Legos you already have. Note that you do need to have a reasonably up to date PC or Mac to use the software and program the NXT brick (see system requirements if you are unsure). Only drawback is that, unlike all the other Legos we own, this one does require 6 AA batteries - rechargeables will be in our future.

He uses the same software at school so already knew how to use it and is still not bored with it. So many possibilities and helps him tremendously with his UIL Robotics. It was nice to find it on Ebay for more reasonable price and brand new. Mindstorms is very expensive in other shops. Thank you!

cant say enough good things about this. Kids can learn math as degrees, rotations, conversions. Also allows kids to apply their math skills. They see a reason for all those hours spent on the drudgery of math problems they encounter at school. Kids encounter mechanical devices such as linkages, gears, etc.., something they wouldnt see till later in life. This also involves quite a bit of spatial reasoning to tinker your creation. Also teaches that the computer is a tool not just entertainment. Teaches kids that failure is okay but satisfaction is achieved when they problem solve to improve their design. You can see the light bulb go on when they start to brainstorm. After a long day at school many kids come in with such enthusiasm. They don't realize they are learning. This is a great stepping stone for many to do more advanced programming and robot design. I could go on and on. But beware Parents must involve themselves. This is not a toy that young kids can just play by themselves. I got my daughter so involved by bringing it to her friends in an after school program. I now have so many kids wanting to join the group. Its awesome.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I am an engineer by career and have a 5 1/2 year old daughter who I want to expose to the benefits of engineering (i.e. math, mechanical and programming engineering, etc.) Lego Mindstorm kits seem to be a great way to ease a child into those kinds of topics. I program for a living and its nice that you can create something with a 10,000 foot view of things instead of having to dig through details that derail a child's attention. Its a good and simple kit with room to grow to a much more involved kit if you decide to take it that way. There are several free high end programming packages out there if you decide to take your programming to a higher level and there are a lot of after market kits on eBay and elsewhere that can also cheaply expand the abilities of the kit. My daughter has already created a few robotics projects and I am easing her into the programming sides of things. Being a graphical programming language,it gives a good start into the ins and outs of programming. I would definitely purchase this kit again. Its by far the best entry into programming, mechanical and electrical engineering and critical thinking.Vollständige Rezension lesen
