Specifications
Cubetto is an award-winning wooden robot that introduces young learners to the fundamentals of coding through imaginative storytelling and tangible play. Unlike screen-based solutions, Cubetto uses a hands-on, physical interface and a friendly robot character to make programming concepts accessible—even for children who can’t yet read. With its tactile command blocks and world map adventures, Cubetto provides an immersive, screen-free learning experience that nurtures creativity, logic, and computational thinking. This robot is designed with early childhood education in mind, encouraging exploration and independence as children build sequences, debug problems, and solve challenges through trial and error. Each journey with Cubetto is an engaging narrative that inspires curiosity and critical thinking from the very first step.
Educational Benefits:
- Introduces early coding concepts without a screen, ideal for foundational learning
- Encourages sequencing, logic, and debugging through hands-on exploration
- Supports pre-literacy learning, accessible to children who can’t yet read or write
- Promotes collaboration, storytelling, and language development in group settings
- Aligns with STEM curriculum outcomes for early years and lower primary
Classroom Ideas:
- Set up storytelling journeys using the included map—challenge students to program Cubetto through specific paths
- Use the coding blocks to explore directional language and mathematics (e.g. left, right, forward, patterns)
- Create custom maps and themes to integrate cross-curricular learning in geography, history, or science
- Promote pair programming activities, encouraging students to take turns coding and troubleshooting together
- Integrate into literacy programs by having students write narratives based on Cubetto’s adventures
