Hi Elaine -

Ozobots are awesome! I work in PreK-4 as well and I love the fact that they
can use markers to create paths, not just screens.

I haven't used the Code and Go but have heard good things about it.

We also use KIBO robot with PreK-2 (mostly) and they love that. They do
need a bit of help sometimes scanning the bar codes, but they love creating
the codes.

I have recently been using Cubetto with my Preks and Ks - screen free - and
they LOVE it!!!

Have fun! Jenny
