🚀 Invitation to Join Our Blockly Pro Python Pilot!

Are your students ready to take their coding skills to the next level? We’re excited to invite educators to participate in a pilot program for our newest feature in Blockly Pro—Python coding!

Until now, Blockly Pro allowed students to toggle between block-based coding and JavaScript. With this pilot, students will be able to switch seamlessly between Blockly, JavaScript, and Python, giving them an authentic introduction to one of the world’s most widely used programming languages.

🧑‍🏫 Who Can Participate?

This opportunity is open to upper elementary and middle school classrooms that meet the following requirements:

  • An active Make Wonder Subscription

  • Dash Robots available for student use

  • Students who are already familiar with Blockly

  • Access to a Chrome Browser on student devices

📅 Pilot Timeline

  • Pilot Window: September 15 – October 31, 2025

  • Feedback Due: November 4, 2025 (though we welcome input throughout the testing period)

📝 What’s Involved

As part of the pilot, you and your students will:

  • Explore the Beta version of Blockly Pro with Python

  • Test its features in your classroom with Dash

  • Share your feedback, ideas, and any issues you encounter

Your input will directly help us shape the future of Blockly Pro for classrooms everywhere.

📌 How to Apply

If you meet the requirements and are excited to join, please fill out this form to express your interest. We’ll reach out to selected participants with next steps.

We can’t wait to see your students coding in Python with Dash! 🎉

Dear Educator,

We are reaching out to let you know about an upcoming price adjustment on Wonder Workshop hardware, effective October 9, 2025.

Due to a 19% increase in tariffs on imports from the Philippines, our costs have risen significantly. We recognize that school budgets are tight, and this was not a decision made lightly. These adjustments only partially offset the higher costs we are absorbing.

To continue delivering high-quality products and support, we will be making the following changes:

  • Launcher: $29.99 → $34.99 MSRP

  • Sketch Kit: $39.99 → $44.99 MSRP

  • Gripper: $39.99 → $44.99 MSRP

  • Dash Robot: $179.99 → $189.99 MSRP

  • Wonder Pack: $269.99 → $289.99 MSRP

  • Dash 12-Pack: $1,795 → $1,895 MSRP

Bundles that include software (such as Make Wonder subscriptions) will remain unchanged, providing an opportunity to take advantage of savings built into those bundles. .

What this means for you:

  • All quotes issued before October 1 will be honored at current pricing through their expiration date.

  • Any new quotes or orders placed on or after October 9 will reflect the updated pricing.

  • We encourage you to complete your order in September to secure today’s prices.

Our commitment remains the same: helping you bring coding and robotics to your students in the most accessible way possible.

If you have an open quote or need help finalizing an order, our team is here to assist you.

Thank you for your partnership and for all you do to inspire the next generation of problem solvers.

Sincerely,
Bryan Miller
Vice President Strategic Growth & Education Outreach
