Product overview

The VEX 123 Robot Kit is a single-robot kit for early learners, from Pre-K through the early primary grades. It includes one 123 Robot in red, green or blue, a 123 Coder, a robot art ring, a USB-C charging cable and a 50-pack of English Coder Cards.

Children can program the robot in three progressively richer ways. First they press the touch buttons on top of the robot to build movement and sound sequences. Next they slot Coder Cards into the Coder to create programs away from tablets and computers. Finally they use VEXcode 123, a drag-and-drop block environment powered by Scratch, on tablets, Chromebooks, Mac or Windows.

The robot has an internal rechargeable lithium iron cell that charges over USB-C in about 1.5 hours and is designed to last a full classroom day, while the Coder runs on two AAA batteries. Teachers can use VEX STEM Labs lessons, and an optional 123 Field provides a defined play space for activities.

    VEX 123 Classroom Bundle – Small / Medium / Large (6 / 12 / 18 robots)

    The VEX 123 Classroom Bundle packages everything needed to run VEX 123 with a full class of young learners. It comes in three sizes: Small (248-7355) with 6 robots for about 12 students, Medium (248-7820) with 12 robots for about 24 students, and Large (248-7821) with 18 robots for about 36 students. The Small bundle includes 6 123 Robots, 6 Coders, 7 packs of Coder Cards, 3 fields (each with 4 tiles and 8 walls), a 6-port USB robot charge case, a Coder storage case, a tote bag, a Coder Cards storage box, robot art rings, a screwdriver and a USB charger; larger bundles scale these quantities up. Students code the robots by touch, with Coder Cards, or in VEXcode 123, building skills in sequencing, logic and problem solving. The fields give groups a shared play space, and the cases keep robots charged and organized between lessons. Bundles come with access to VEXcode, STEM Labs curriculum and the STEM Library.

    VEX GO Robot Kit

    The VEX GO Robot Kit (VEX GO Education Kit with Storage, 269-6705) is a single-robot construction system designed for elementary students in Grades 3-5. Students build models from color-coded beams, plates, gears, pulleys, wheels and pins, then bring them to life with a Brain, a battery, a switch, three motors, an Eye Sensor, an LED Bumper and an electromagnet. Builds are programmed with VEXcode GO, a block-based coding environment, and the kit is supported by standards-aligned STEM Labs, the STEM Library, build instructions and printable classroom resources. Students explore engineering and design thinking, coding and computational thinking, physical science, and math and data in project-based activities. Parts arrive pre-sorted in clear-lidded, stackable storage, which keeps classroom setup and clean-up simple. The battery uses rechargeable lithium iron cells, charges via USB-C in about 2.5 hours and is designed to last a full classroom day. No prior robotics experience is needed to start teaching.

    VEX GO Classroom Bundle – Small / Medium / Large (5 / 10 / 15 robots)

    The VEX GO Classroom Bundle equips a full elementary class (Grades 3-5) to build and code with VEX GO. It comes in three sizes: Small (269-7778) with 5 robots for up to 10 students, Medium (269-7777) with 10 robots for up to 20 students, and Large (269-7779) with 15 robots for up to 30 students. The Small bundle contains 5 GO Education Kits with Storage, 12 field walls, extra pin tools, a carrying bag for the kits, a field carrying bag, a spare parts bin with GO Parts Packs A, B and C plus a multi-port USB cable, a charging hub and a poster. The Medium and Large bundles multiply these contents to match the class size. Students work in pairs or small groups on engineering, coding, physical science and math activities, programming their builds with VEXcode GO. The bundle includes standards-aligned STEM Labs and classroom-ready resources, and it is designed for easy setup, organized storage and repeated classroom use. No prior robotics experience is required.

    VEX IQ Robot Kit (2nd generation)

    The VEX IQ Robot Kit (2nd generation), sold as the VEX IQ Education Kit (228-8899), is a single-robot kit that builds coding and engineering confidence for students in Grades 5-8. It uses reusable, snap-together plastic parts, so students can design, build and rebuild robots without tools. The electronics include a Robot Brain, a Controller, a rechargeable Robot Battery, four Smart Motors, a Touch LED, a Bumper Switch, an Optical Sensor, a Distance Sensor and a set of Smart Cables. These are combined with beams, plates, gears, sprockets and chain, shafts, wheels and connectors for a wide range of mechanisms. Students program their robots with VEXcode and work through standards-aligned STEM Labs, practicing engineering design and collaborative problem solving. The robot battery charges over USB-C in about two hours and lasts a full classroom day, and the kit can later be upgraded to the Competition Kit with the Education-to-Competition Upgrade Kit.
