GeoSmart Flip Bot was sent to use free of charge to let us play and form our own opinion of this toy.
Here is a secret everyone in my house knows – I am the least techy person in my family! While my older kids striving for all things STEM classes, my younger learning his way around my Apple laptop, and my husband fixing just about anything I break, I am giving up on technology. And get this, even my dog is succeeding food puzzles.
Do you know the best part of being a mother? As I admit the defeat, I can now freely stand back through STEM obstacles at my family! It is a lot more entertaining watching them trying to figure things out instead of trying to pose as a guest expert that somehow can fake his way around a smart toy! Let me introduce you to my latest fine – GeoSmart Flip Bot! And yes – it certainly makes a fantastic last minute gift!
Named 2019 Toy of the year, finalist GeoSmart Flip Bot is a 30-piece geomagnetic construction set with turbo motors. Not only this construction set rocks its bright colors and strong magnetic pieces, but it is also an incredible endless STEM play activity that can compete with video games.
GeoSmart is on the cutting edge of GeoMagnetic construction with its double-lock safety system to the latest powerful motors moving remote-controlled vehicles. It is safe and durable which makes it a perfect choice for kids as young as 5 and as old as your significant other.
Play starts as soon as you open the box yet I would recommend you starting with charging your batteries. Flip Bot’s new TURBO motors come with internal, rechargeable batteries – plug it in first and avoid the downtime! There is also a remote control, and that one requires three aaa batteries.
I only wish I could design my car this way – change the color with ease, shape and get my four-wheel friend racing onto the busy town streets within a matter of minutes. And while the idea of self-driving cars is accessible to most of us, the GeoSmart Flip is here to get our kids dreaming of their future vehicles.
Did I mention that it comes with a cute remote control? This bot can zoom, spin and flip over. Controlled wirelessly, the colorful toy is ideal for children five years and up. While building guides are included, kids are encouraged to use their creativity to build different remote-controlled vehicles with the content of the box. Weighing less than two pounds when entirely assembled, this entertaining bot flips whenever direction is changed from forward to back or back to
forward.
This 30-piece geomagnetic set boasts turbo motors to allow the remote-controlled vehicle to effortlessly zoom, spin, and of course, flip over! At home and in the classroom, this robot makes learning fun. I am incredibly happy with the durability of the bot as my children are anything but gentle with their toys.
I have mentioned before that this toy is designed for children 5+, but this morning with the older siblings off to school my 3-year-old finally got his hands on the GeoSmart Bot and had it driving into the walls in no time. Ten minutes later he brought me the wheels first and right after he carried the rest of the car in both hands – is it broken? Not at all, but now we have to wait for one of the older kids to produce a newer model of the GeoSmart Bot my 3-year-year old can flip around the house.
