LEGO® Robotics Kit (COMING SOON!) 

Get ready to dive into the world of robotics with LEGO® EV3. They are part of the LEGO® Mindstorms® Kit, which allows you to build and program your very own creations. With regular LEGO® bricks and electronic components like motors, sensors, and a “brick” (the brain that controls everything), you’ll have everything you need to bring your robot to life!

Once your robot is built, you can program it to move, turn, pick up objects and even follow lines using the LEGO® Mindstorms® Robot Inventor app

LEGO® EV3s are a mix of building, playing and learning how robots work. You get to be a robot builder and a programmer all at the same time! Each kit has a checklist of items. All items on the checklist must be included when returned.
