Wizbot is the ultimate screen-free learning companion for kids to explore the world of foundational literacy, numeracy, and computational thinking in an interactive and playful way!
It comes in 3 forms:

In this tutorial, we’re going to introduce you to Wizbot, an engaging educational toy that makes learning foundational skills super-easy, screen-free, and fun, how to install its batteries, how to charge it, and discuss its intuitive button-based input and interactive output (movement and drawing) capabilities.
How to install AAA batteries?
- The battery holder is on the back side of Wizbot.
Step 1: Slide the cover of the battery holder to insert batteries.
- Wizbot is powered by three AAA-size Alkaline Batteries. The board’s power must come only from internal sources.
Step 2: Insert the batteries only as per the indicated polarities.
- Do not leave the batteries unused inside Wizbot for a long time (months). AAA batteries are likely to corrode the terminals of the battery holder.
- Please turn off the power switch when Wizbot is not in use.
(Wizbot has an automatic power shut-off feature called Auto Sleep. Eventually, when Wizbot is left idle for more than 5 minutes, it will power down)
- A low battery indicator will light up afterward when your batteries are used up. To restore complete functionality, please replace the used batteries. However, ensure the power is off before replacing them.
Next, Switch ON to the “Button Coding”
Step 3: Slide the 3-Way Power Switch to the Button Coding position. When you do this, an orange light will glow on the back side, accompanied by a “tweet-tweet” buzzer sound.
