The QUBS Cody Block Educational Toy teaches kids computational thinking through tactile screen-free play. Help Cody find his way home by coding through the cityscape one block at a time. This set is suitable for students aged three to twelve.
Cody is a super-smart educational toy that introduces children to the basics of coding - from algorithms and sequencing to debugging and beyond. Place Cody and his house where you want to play, then plan the route. It can be as big as you want, and different building blocks will steer Cody where you want him to go.
If you make a mistake or send Cody the wrong way, you can go back and ‘debug’ your program, just as you would with a coding sequence. Follow the steps laid out in our City Guide, create your own adventure, or experiment with ambitious coding functions and infinite loops – the choice is yours. With so many ways to arrange your blocks and shape Cody’s adventure, the only limit is your imagination.
Algorithms: An algorithm is a set of rules that define a sequence of operations. When children lay out the Building Blocks for Cody to follow, they are actually giving the computer rules on how and where to move.
Sequencing: Sequencing is the specific order in which instructions are performed in an algorithm. It is important that the steps in an algorithm are performed in the correct order - otherwise, the algorithm will not work.
Debugging: Mistakes in code are called 'bugs.' Debugging is a process that includes identifying the problem and then correcting it. The Building Blocks are tangible and arranged on a surface for the children to see, so it's easier for them to spot the mistake in their code and debug the program.
Logic: Learning the thinking behind coding teaches children how to tackle large problems by breaking them down into a sequence of smaller, more manageable problems. This logical thinking skill is a powerful tool that can be used in every field and in real life too.
If you are not satisfied for whatever reason with a Product you bought on the Site, it is possible to return it for refund within 30 days from the date you received it unless otherwise indicated in the Product listing.

The Product must then be returned in its original packaging (in perfect condition for resale) with its receipt and your (‘’RA’’) number. Reimbursement will be denied for any Products which do not conform to the above mentioned conditions.
Build-it-yourself Robot Parts are not refundable once assembled. Robots & Kits requiring assembly or soldering are also not refundable once assembled, soldered or modified in any way. All sales of robotic software and apps are final and cannot be refunded or exchanged. Returns are not accepted on special orders and clearance items except when they are found defective, in which case the Product may be repaired or replaced at the Vendor’s discretion. 20% Restocking fees may apply if you are returning a large quantity of the same Product that was ordered specifically for you from the manufacturer.
Please note that all items will be reimbursed within 7 to 14 days of receiving the Product (shipping fees excluded). You must also cover the cost of returning the Product.
