Airblock is a modular programmable drone for kids that provides a simplified introduction to coding and it looks like a ton of fun. The drone is made up of a central hub and 6 foam covered power pods that magnetically attach to the hub. You can configure the pods any many shapes and designs to make it look however you want. A phone or tablet is used to code the drone with drag and drop commands that make it easy and allows the drone to be controlled to fly, drive and hover. We think this is a great idea to get kids involved in STEM and they will have a ball playing with it. This has been out for awhile now, but we felt it deserved to be highlighted. Airblock sells for $99
