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 get this going with the instructions in about half an hour. It's a learning tool, so a child may get more from it when an adult guides the first sessions. That is why it fits guided setup and not a buy-and-use product.
