With this unique STEM toy that draws on concepts used in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to build and control the programmable robot spider. Children will enjoy the creative challenge of constructing and programming the spider alone or as a fun activity with a parent and feel proud when the creepy crawly robot comes to life using built-in buttons or the free Meccano app on a mobile device. A great way to introduce kids to the fun and innovative world of robotics, kids can interact with the creepy crawly creature in a variety of modes and games. The infrared remote control spider toy will sense movement, chase down enemies and spray venom in attack mode, actively patrol in guard mode, and move around on its own in autonomous mode, playing songs and sound effects. Featuring an IR sensor, it detects movement and chases after whatever it sees, so it can engage, pursue and apprehend whatever is in its path. The programmable robot also comes with built-in games for hours of entertainment.
Information
Our SmartKidsPlanet initiative began in 2017 when 3 geeky and dedicated parents saw a gap in the children’s toys and games market. An opportunity was spotted while we struggled to find toys and games for our kids which enriched their minds and guided them toward science, art, math and construction. The trio then knew that their paths were set, establishing an online shop with a comprehensive range of intelligent toys for babies, children and young teenagers.
With offices based in California, our SmartKidsPlanet team enjoys a daily growth in our presence within the children’s educational toys market. We love our new place in life, and we love helping young minds with their growth and skill development, all while having as much fun as possible.
Bought for nephew for holidays. He loves to tinker but gets bored w/ the average build kit (ex. Lil car kits). Has an interest w/ how things work & techtronics so figured I would get this....he LOVES it & LOVES the fact that he can make it move/control it afterwards.
I bought this for my 10 year old for Christmas. It took him about 4 days (1-2 hours a day) to finish it. He is so proud of it! I'd say it was an excellent buy for a child that likes technology.
Love it! My husband needed to do most of the assembly for my 7 year old. It took my husband an hour or two to have it full built. It's really cool! Moves really well.
This Meccano Mecca Spider is a terrific edition to any collection for robot lovers. Our 11 year old son did a great job assembling him and only needed some help along the way. It is a heavy duty design and will make our son happy for years to come.
This thing is AWESOME! My kids love it. The assembly instructions are pretty good and if you follow them it isn۪t difficult to put together. Took me less than 1 hour. It goes through batteries pretty quick so I۪ll buy some rechargeables for it and be good to go.
