WeDo 2.0 Core Set Robotics STEAM Building Kit

The WeDo 2.0 Core Set Robotics STEAM Kit is a 280-piece LEGO-compatible building and coding system that lets kids construct motorized models like a helicopter crane, a robotic dog, and wheeled vehicles, then bring them to life with a Smarthub motor and sensors. Paired with drag-and-drop programming software, it’s a hands-on introduction to robotics, engineering, and computer science built around real building and real code.

Key Features & Benefits

• 280-Piece Building Set: Includes a wide variety of LEGO-compatible bricks, beams, and connectors stored in a labeled sorting tray.
• Smarthub & Motor: A rechargeable Smarthub and motor power each build’s movement.
• Sensors Included: Motion and tilt sensors let models react to movement and orientation.
• Multiple Buildable Models: Build a range of models including a helicopter crane, robotic dog, and wheeled vehicles using the same core set.
• Drag-and-Drop Coding: Companion software uses simple icon-based programming blocks to control each build.
• Organized Storage Tray: Compartmentalized tray keeps every piece sorted for easy building and cleanup.

Care & Usage

Sort pieces into the storage tray compartments to keep the set organized between builds. Follow the building instructions to construct each model, then connect the Smarthub and sensors to bring it to life. Use the companion drag-and-drop software on a compatible tablet or computer to program movement and sensor reactions. Store all pieces in the tray after play to avoid losing parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What age is this robotics kit recommended for?

A: It’s recommended for children ages 8 and up.
