Beloved Legos now move
Big news for kids from this year’s tech conference, CES, in Las Vegas.
The new Lego Boost kits bring creations to life with motors and sensors while teaching basic programming.
The Boost kits are designed for kids as young as 7.
There are five different versions available. One is Vernie, a robot with a bow tie and expressive eyebrows.
There is also a cat, a space rover, a factory and a guitar.
The kits have about 850 pieces and feature a new part called Move Hub. This is a computer, a wireless chip and a tilt sensor that you attach to your creation. And it can be anything you create with ordinary Legos.
Once they build their creations, kids go to their tablet app where they learn to assemble simple instructions to make their robotic toys move.
The kits will sell for about $160 later this year.
