I received a Robot Mouse Maze Quest Game set in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
Established in 1983, HearthSong has been committed to assisting parents by providing their children with age-appropriate, high-quality toys, and crafts. The HearthSong catalog is filled with high-quality toys and crafts supplies to help your kids development. The brand believes in the importance of creative and imaginative play and honestly, that is the reason why I like this store so much!

Coding and programming is something that kids nowadays have early access to. The key to awaken kids’ curiosities and love for coding is giving them doable projects that match their age and capability to avoid any frustrations. I wanted to introduce my daughter to the coding world with activities that would fuel her curiosity.
Colby, The Programmable Mouse:
This is a great way to introduce your kids to coding concepts. The cute little mouse comes with a maze that users put together and then program Colby to find his way through the maze. This is a great deal of fun and provides your kids with many learning activities.
Setting up is really easy and was developed for kids ages 5 and up. Young coders will have a lot of fun by directing the cute little mouse to the path he should follow in order to go through the maze and reach his goal and get to his cheese.
The set comes with a series of cards that the kids can lay down to remember the correct coding sequence then use the arrow buttons, on top of Colby’s back, to program him to go through the maze.
The 83-piece Robot Mouse Maze Quest Game set includes:
– Colby the mouse
– 16 maze grids
-22 maze walls
– 3 tunnels
-1 cheese wedge
-30 double-sided coding cards
-10 double-sided activity cards.
The kids might not get the sequence right all the times and Colby might not make it to his goal, but it is still lots of fun and your kids will love the sense accomplishment when the little mouse finally follows their instructions and reaches the cheese.
Colby features two different speeds and is powered by 3 AAA batteries that are not included with the set.
To double the fun, they also offer a second mouse (Jack), who can be purchased separately and can be programmed so both mice can race for the cheese!
The Code and Go™ Robot Mouse Activity Set has a retail price of $79.98 and it is an award-winning way to introduce your kids to coding!

Knowing my nephews, they would love the outdoor toys. The Vortex Spin Swing looks like fun, or the Bright Light BBop ( big bubble-like things they wear & the bounce off of each other, lol.) Those kinds of toys are what my nephews love.
My niece would like the Fairy Design Kit.

I like toys that make kids want to get outside and play. The Deluxe Heavy-Duty Backyard Tetherball Game looks great for that. I like that it is also easy to set up. It also come with a pump for the ball which is nice.
I’d like the mega volcano kit! I like toys that are educational, but aren’t technological. This shop has some great finds! 🙂
I would love to have the Deluxe Heavy-Duty Backyard Tetherball Game. My children play with building toys, I would love a move interactive game.
The Simply Suspects Board Game looks like a fun family game.
14-in-1 Educational Robot that’s pretty cool. I like stem gifts because I think it’s great to encourage those core subjects to the next generation in my family and community.
My son would love the Remote-Control Walking Velociraptor

I like toys that my children can play together with. The Pick-Up-And-Go Ping-Pong Table is great since I can take it anywhere! My children are also competitive so this would be perfect for them.
I would love the Child’s Acorn Play Tent with Removable Roof. It looks sturdy and fun. I like outdoor toys for my daughter to encourage her to play without electronics!
