Let It Code!
By LBT on Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2019
I've been a big supporter of Kano for a while and bought this product for my friend's daughter, who loves Frozen. She's been entranced by the kit and has been excitedly telling her Mom and I about all the the she has made (and the things she wants to make next). I love how accessible Kano makes programming! My friend's daughter had never shown any interest in coding before, but it's clearly opened up a new world for her! Her Mom is so excited that she's getting positive screen time.

Doesn't Work - Online-Required App No Longer Supported
By Dina R. Herbert on Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2023
The core of this product is an sign-in required app that does the coding. It's broken because the company that did it got out of the business and turned off their computers. So you can't use this thing to do the code because you can't create an account. Frustration awaits if you try to create an account. The app tells you, "something went wrong" every time you pick a username. If you try to go to the URLs mentioned in any of the documentation, you get 404 or security errors from your browser and cannot get to the sites. Doing some Googling with a frustrated kid by my side, I found out Kano stopped being in the educational software business in January of 2023 because they were losing millions of pounds (they're a UK firm) a year. None of the websites Kano used to run for educational software work anymore; either they don't resolve or they don't let you go anywhere useful. As a result, returning as defective -- there's no coding game attached to this motion-sensitive blinky paperweight anymore.
