My Project

Pyxel is the newest robot dog on the block! Dubbed a coder’s best friend, Pyxel comes equipped with built-in software that allows kids to interact and control it using code. This four-legged robotic friend can be programmed to do all sorts of things, like walk, bark, change color, make sounds, and express emotions. Whether you’re a coding pro or just starting out, Pyxel is designed to meet you at your skill level.

Coding is an essential skill in today’s world, and it’s an advantage for kids to start learning it early.

With these robotic dogs, my students can develop their coding skills easily at their own pace. It’s a great option to help children learn the basics of coding and develop problem-solving skills.

Pyxel is a great way for kids to learn to code because it’s fun and engaging. Kids can see their code come to life in real-time as they program Pyxel to do tricks, change its color, and even make it perform various tasks. Pyxel is also a very forgiving platform, so kids don’t have to worry about making mistakes. With Pyxel as their companion, kids can learn the fundamentals of coding while having a blast.
