Little robot. Lotta fun. Sphero Mini fits a huge experience into a tiny robot the size of a ping pong ball. Aside from driving and addicting games, get the ball rolling just by using your face.

And thanks to the beauty of app updates, there’s always more features on the way.

This STEM gadget is suitable for anyone over 8 years of age. The ball comes in different colors so your kid can choose according to their taste. I think Sphero mini is a perfect gift for Thanksgiving or Christmas, your kid is gonna love it!
