Set up Time
15 minutes
Supplies
- LEGO® bricks (optional)
- Flowers, candy, a homemade card, or any other Mother’s Day gift (optional)
Mission:
Use Dash to deliver a special message to your mother or a mother you know. Dash can also deliver a Mother’s Day gift, like a homemade card or a flower!
Setup:
- Come up with a sweet Mother’s Day message.
- You may want to decorate your robot messenger or even send a gift with the message. We decided to use the Building Block Extensions to make a LEGO® flower vase. You can also use the Tow Hook to pull a carriage with the gift inside.
- Using the sound recording feature in Path or Go, record your message. You can record up to five short messages.
- Deliver your message and enjoy the reaction!
Play Options
Go App
Suggested for Ages: 5+
- In Go, you can record your messages before controlling Dash.
- After recording your messages, you can control Dash directly to deliver the message.
Here’s a video that explains how to record your voice in the Go app so that Dash can play the recording.
Path App
Suggested for Ages: 5+
- Draw a path from your location to the target’s location.
- You may want to use Dash to measure out the route ahead of time. Remember, Dash is the same size as a block on Path.
- After you draw the path, drag the sound icon to the place along the path where you want Dash to speak.
- Tap the Record button and record your message.
Here’s an example that uses three messages:
- Good morning, Mom! I have a message.
- Happy Mother’s Day. I love you!
- See you later!
Application Blockly
Suggested for Ages: 8+
- Use Blockly to plan and initiate a sequence of commands for Dash to navigate around the house to deliver your object and message to your mother.
- Use the “My Sounds” block to record and play specific messages for your mother.
- Can you complete the program in as few blocks as possible?
