Wonderful product, good timing in delivery.

Kano makes coding simple and fun. For Potter fans, this brings both together for a fun learning experience.

Purchased this for my 5 year old son. Whilst I am familiar with the Kano brand, I have never used any of their computer kits, and though my son has never seen any of the Harry Potter movies, I thought the Harry Potter Wand Kit could be a good way of introducing him to coding. Tip: I showed him the TV advert first to get him in interested… then presented the box to him. He loves it! The app is simple and clean; you’re presented with a map of Hogwarts which you navigate through and complete puzzles and challenges by creating (coding) spells. The actual coding process is quite simple too, dragging & dropping block codes to build / create your spell, then using the wand to initiate them. My son beamed when he cast his first spell - changing the colour of an owl from orange to blue (then to green, then red, yellow and so on). Then bouncing a cauldron around and recolouring the potion. The coding puzzles and challenges do get more difficult as you progress. It’s still early days, but so far he’s having lots of fun with the kit and developing an understanding of the concept of coding.

I bought this for my nephew, who is beginning to explore the world of Harry Potter through the first couples of books. He was so excited to see this, and had a ton of fun interacting with the computer using his new 'wand.' From what I saw, Kano does an excellent job of incorporating technology into its products. My nephew loaded up the software on my laptop, and was able to complete fun and engaging themed-coding challenges relevant to the world of Harry Potter. I was even taking turns at completing some of the challenges, envisioning myself as a young wizard once again! Highly recommend this kit to anyone who loves Harry Potter!

Grandson loves it.

Some of the reviews here are on non-supported devices! This worked perfectly on my two year old iPad. Casting spells is really satisfying and the apps coding challenges get pretty deep.

Bought as a Xmas gift.
