Fisher-Price made a caterpillar that teaches coding basics to preschoolers

CAT Tracks Editor's Note:

Hey, I'm for it!

If K-12 students can have iPads...

...why shouldn't preschoolers have access to the world of hi-tech?

Maybe Fisher-Price has a grant program like Apple where the district could get them for free...

...but, if not, buy them!

I mean, I don't know how many preschoolers the district has at any one time, but it couldn't be more than 40...

...times $50 bucks each equals $2,000. The District still has about $3.5 million dollars in the bank. And, you've gotta admit it, they are soooooo cute!

Or...

...the Oris B. Hastings Charitable Foundation has been very generous in supporting CSD #1 endeavors, so maybe it would foot the bill.

At least (unlike with iPads) we wouldn't have to worry about students using Code-a-Pillars to access porn sites!

Hmmm...

"Three different expansion packs, which will cost $15 each, give the Code-a-Pillar extra features that you can buy at $15 for a 3-pack."

You don't think...

...that some ingenious entrepreneur (or hacking high school student) would come up with an X-rated pack that would make our cute, innocent-looking Code-a-Pillar:

Do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight?

Sigh.
