The Blockly app, developed by Google, is a visual drag-and-drop programming tool that requires a Wonder Workshop robot (Dash or Dot) to play. This app provides a platform for children to engage in coding challenges and unleash their creativity by using Blockly to control Dash & Dot, all in a fun and educational manner.

Through self-directed play and guided challenges, kids can learn essential coding concepts such as sequencing, events, loops, algorithms, operations, and variables. The app offers a variety of basic puzzles that introduce these coding concepts through playful project ideas, empowering kids to learn and explore independently. Additionally, bonus puzzles are regularly added for sustained entertainment and learning.

With their newfound knowledge and the companionship of Dash & Dot, kids can confidently embark on their own coding adventures. This app is designed for ages 8 and up.

As featured in prominent publications like the New York Times, USA TODAY, WIRED, Engadget, and BBC, the Blockly app has garnered praise for its immersive and engaging experience.

Reviews from users highlight the app's enthralling nature. The New York Times describes it as "thoroughly absorbing," while Business Insider reports that kids eagerly request to play with the robots again. James Oppenheim commends Wonder Workshop's commitment to prioritizing kids' learning of twenty-first-century skills while VentureBeat notes how the app encourages exploration and problem-solving.

How to Play

  • Get started with a sample project or unleash creativity by creating projects from scratch
  • Navigate Dash through mazes or around your home using object detection to avoid obstacles
  • Program Dash & Dot to raise an alarm when there is a disturbance
