This is a fun little game to teach young ones very beginning and simple logic. Their goal is essentially to create a set of instructions (think: "go straight, then turn left, then use your laser to melt some ice") that you the adult enact, acting sort of as their computer.
It can scale well to different age and maturity levels by changing what obstacles are on the game board and changing the layout. We haven't gone through all of the available options as my son isn't that advanced yet, but i see this having legs for a couple years (4 to 6) and maybe longer.

Robot Turtles
A Fun Way to Learn Code!
The most backed board game in Kickstarter history sneakily teaches preschoolers the fundamentals of programming, from coding to functions, while making silly turtle noises! Takes seconds to learn, minutes to play and provides endless learning opportunities. Before you know it, your little one will be writing computer games rather than just playing them!
Set up the game board with the Turtle Tile in the corner and the Jewel Tile in the center.
Use Code Cards (Forward, Left, and Right) to program the Turtle.
Reach the Jewel Tile and unlock the next level of play!

Loving it!
My bigger kids are loving this game - especially the 5.5 year old (but non reading) boy! His newly four year old sister is slightly less enthralled, although she does like to make her turtle "dance." One play note: he was ready after the first couple of plays to make 2 or 3 moves at a time: what perplexes him is right-to left order and placing his cards in a neat line. To help, I numbered several 4x6 index cards and have him place his cards on them. Eventually I may make them into a "mat" to keep with the game. (I know you're supposed to leave all the cards out as you play them, but even our large dining room table doesn't really have the space - especially with a grabby 1 year old in the mix. So we clean up after 2 to 4 moves.)
