- Understanding of basic engineering principles
- Knowledge of different parts and components of a robot
- Understanding of cause and effect relationships
- Development of fine motor skills
- Understanding of spatial awareness and geometry
- Introduction to basic programming concepts
- Understanding of how gears and levers work
- Understanding of balance and stability

Continued development can be encouraged by:
- Encouraging the child to build more complex robots with additional features
- Introducing the child to coding and programming concepts to make the robot move or perform specific tasks
- Exploring different types of robots and their applications in real-life situations
- Encouraging the child to experiment with different materials and designs to enhance the robot's functionality
- Introducing the child to other STEM activities and experiments to further develop their scientific knowledge and skills
