Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions A family member or teacher can set this up from the activity guide in about half an hour, so no clinician is needed. It is not a pick-up-and-use item, though. The student gets the most from it when an adult walks through the first coding activities and the tactile graphics together.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

Colby is a programmable robot mouse that students teach to run a maze and reach the cheese. Kids press colorful buttons on the mouse to build a sequence of moves, and Colby lights up and makes sounds as it goes. It has two speeds. This accessible set adds tactile graphics so students who are blind or have low vision can explore coding by touch, and a companion activity guide introduces the coding ideas. It's a good fit for young learners starting with early coding concepts, ideally with an adult or teacher helping them through the first activities.

What setup looks like

  • With a guide
    1. Unpack the mouse and maze pieces, then read the Activity Guide to see how the coding activities are laid out.
    2. Have an adult or teacher try a few button sequences first so they can show the student how Colby moves.
    3. Start with short, simple programs and build up to the full maze. Plan about 30 minutes to get comfortable.
