The Sphero indi Student Kit is an engaging, screen-free entry point into the world of STEAM learning for young minds. Designed for Pre-K and up, this compact yet powerful robot teaches foundational skills in computational thinking and computer science through interactive, hands-on play. Ideal for 1–3 students, indi fosters creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving, both in classrooms and at home—without the need for a screen.
The kit comes complete with 1 indi robot, 20 color tiles, a student case, challenge cards, and more—all designed to inspire creativity and independent exploration.
Indi is more than just a robot—it’s a tool for fostering teamwork and collaborative learning. With its user-friendly design and minimal setup, the kit seamlessly fits into a variety of lesson plans and group activities. Students work together to build custom mazes, debug logic issues, and solve real-world challenges. Its compact size makes it perfect for small groups or one-on-one instruction, whether in classrooms or informal learning spaces.
Created with young learners in mind, indi features intuitive controls that eliminate barriers to entry. Its robust battery offers over an hour of active play on a full charge, keeping students engaged without interruption. With a quick 1 hour and 40-minute charge time, indi is always ready for the next adventure.
One of indi’s standout features is its dual-mode programming capability. Beginners can dive right in using the included latex-free color tiles, which the robot reads using an onboard color sensor—no screen required. As students grow in confidence and ability, they can transition to the Sphero Edu Jr app, a visual, drag-and-drop programming tool available on Chrome, Mac, iOS, Android, and Kindle. This flexible learning pathway supports a wide range of ages and skill levels.
The indi Student Kit encourages endless creative possibilities. Students can customize their robot with decorative stickers, create unique mazes with modular color tiles, and solve challenges through hands-on experimentation. This promotes early development of logic, cause and effect reasoning, directional thinking, and STEAM-based skills—all while having fun.
Indi supports independent exploration with pre-reader-friendly Challenge Cards that guide students through a variety of structured and open-ended activities. These cards build student confidence and autonomy by introducing new logic and problem-solving tasks in a developmentally appropriate format.
While indi is designed for screen-free learning, students can expand their coding skills with the Sphero Edu Jr app. This intuitive, block-based platform allows students to customize how indi responds to different color tiles. Compatible with a wide range of devices, the app enables both classroom and home learning, supporting learners at every stage of their STEAM journey.
