Setup
- Set a simple goal, like reaching a chair across the room
- The 'programmer' can only give one simple command at a time (forward, turn, stop)
- The 'robot' follows exactly what's said, nothing more
Play prompts
- What's your next command?
- Did the robot follow exactly, or did it guess?
- Can you get there in fewer commands?
Ways to change it up
- Add obstacles the robot must be steered around
- Swap roles after each successful run
Safety notes
- Keep the course free of anything the 'robot' could trip on
