Blockly
The Blockly app is based on the visual coding
environment developed by Google. This app
is a visual coding tool ideal for kids 8 and
older. Here, kids can program Dash with
increasing complexity and have Dash and
Dot interact with each other.
The Blockly app gives you free rein on what
the robots can do, and what the robots sense
around them. You can use events, conditions,
loops and all the usual controls of the robots.
Start with example code and learn by editing
and tweaking it.

program Dash to play the xylophone. It
requires the optional xylophone
accessory.The interface blends in music and
coding, and brings out the specific concepts
of loops for children to explore patterns in
music.
