Geosmart Flip Bot

If your child loves STEM subjects and you're looking for a toy this holiday season, the GeoSmart Flip Bot may be the perfect gift.  This toy is a Toy of the Year Finalist for 2019 (winners of the TOTY Awards will be announced on Friday, February 15, 2019). 

We recently received this toy for review. My girls love building robot kits with their dad and they are big fans of geomagnets (we have a huge magnet wall in our basement... a big panel of sheet metal bolted to a rec room wall for magnet play). My younger girls (7 and 8 years old) enjoyed playing with this toy. Young elementary age children especially enjoy this kit. It's the "best of all worlds" for fans of robots, magnets and remote control toys as it truly combines all three. 

With thirty geometric magnetic pieces for easy assembly, rechargeable batteries and turbo motors, there are many different ways to assemble the robot and the pieces come apart so you can redesign your vehicle over and over. The girls loved this feature. We also found all of the parts to be well made and durable.

The instructions in the kit were super simple and easy to follow. My youngest was able to follow the instructions and assemble the robot on her own with very little assistance.

Once assembled, the girls enjoyed playing with the car with the wireless remote control. The car zooms, flips and drives across the floor with ease.

The Flip Bot is just one kit offered by GeoSmart this holiday season. The selection includes the Space Ball, Space Station, Moon Lander, Mars Explorer and more!
