“toio’s Independent Research Project,” Supervision by CANVAS

The first collaboration with the robot toy “toio”: “toio’s Independent Research Project”!
"GoGo Robot Programming: The Secrets of Logibo" is an adventure picture book that helps children learn the three basic elements of programming—sequence, branching, and repetition—while having fun. Cute robots move playfully across the pages, allowing children to experience firsthand how programs work.On the adventure map inside this picture book, you’ll aim for the goal alongside a cube-shaped robot. As you play, you’ll not only learn the basics of programming but also develop a trial-and-error mindset and gain valuable experience.
CANVAS is providing supervision for a workshop that utilizes this “GoGo Robot Programming.”
We’re thrilled to be collaborating with toio. We hope you’ll all join us! (*^^*)
