Hunter's comment
Coding is an increasingly valuable skill to have in the modern day, and so it can help kids in their future if they get ready for it now in a way that they enjoy.
This toy caterpillar means to do exactly that. Designed for preschool kids, the 9 segments of the Code-a-Pillar can be rearranged to tell it how to move - left, right, forward and even wait. The big eyes make it more fun with blinking and sounds for a more interactive experience. Kids can rearrange the segments to reprogram the caterpillar as it moves to its final destination.
Kids can make more challenging obstacle courses, program the caterpillar to try to get past them, and learn various useful skills along the way - problem solving, reasoning, fine motor skills, and of course basic coding then debugging (segments light up when they activate!) - not bad for a five year old!
