Hi!
I want to introduce bots to my kids (5, 7 and 9 yrs old) and I want to chose robots with supports, adds on and long life. I’m learning Arduino and kids love scratching… Are Makeblock mBot up to the task?
About mBot by Makeblock, is it better to go with the bluetooth or wi-fi version, I have 4 kids and we want to eventually have multiple robots. We have lots of PC, we have a tablet and phones, but we usually don’t use it with the kids…
Regards!
Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Hi, considering that the blue mbot Bluetooth version is not available for ordering, would the purchase of a bluetooth module in addition to the 2.4Ghz version of the mbot be the best way to go about it ? My boy certainly doesn’t want the pink bluetooth version.
thanks,
Dave
Hello @DavidDoiron and welcome to the forum,
If you want to use the Bluetooth App to control the mBot and that version is not available then yes a good solution would be getting the compatible Bluetooth module
Another option would be to buy from the US site where the Bluetooth version is available
