An ideal beginner's robot for interactive coding
Codey Rocky is two robots in one. Codey is a handheld controller with an LED screen, buttons and built-in sensors. Rocky is the driving base that turns Codey into a moving robot.
There's nothing to build, so kids can start coding in the very first lesson.
Write your first code with Codey Rocky
With 20+ coding tasks and rich online tutorials, Codey Rocky helps children learn robotics, programming, game design and IoT in a fun way.
Each component is carefully designed to enable kids to be creators, inventors and entrepreneurs.
Why choose Codey Rocky for coding and robotics?
Codey Rocky gives learners a hands-on way to learn coding, robotics and computational thinking. Its screen, buttons, speaker and sensors respond to the code children write, so ideas like sequencing, loops and conditions become something they can see, hear and play with.
Built for South African classrooms
Codey Rocky is ready out of the box and rechargeable, so there's no setup time eaten out of a lesson. Guided coding tasks and online tutorials give teachers ready-made activities for primary school learners.
A clear path from first code to Python
The same robot works at every level. Children start with Scratch-style blocks in mBlock, then switch to Python and explore AI and IoT projects, so Codey Rocky stays useful for years.
Try it, compare it, get help
Try mBlock online for free, look at our screen-free option for younger learners, or get help with a robot you already own.
Three coding levels with one Codey Rocky
Every level uses the same robot, so it keeps being useful as skills develop.
Play and explore
Kids drive Codey Rocky, draw faces on the LED screen and complete guided coding tasks with simple drag-and-drop blocks.
Block coding with mBlock 5
Scratch-style blocks teach real programming ideas: sequences, loops, events and conditions, using the robot's sensors and screen.
Python, AI and IoT
Switch the same projects to Python, and use AI extensions and Wi-Fi to build smarter, connected projects.
