Ad-A-STEP for Life Program

This innovative and fun program is designed to provide safety activities, awareness, and education through the use of Probotics. The “Kid BOTS” are engaging, life-like robots operated by safety specialists that will teach and interact with children in kindergarten through fifth grades with the goal of meeting the safety needs that are a concern to this age group. This information can be delivered in workshops, group assemblies, class presentations, extracurricular events, or any presentation style that is requested by the school district. These robotic characters have been used in crime prevention and safety for years. They enhance the presentation style and delivery, are remote and voice controlled, and come with their own vehicles such as bicycles, ATVs, and wheelchairs, to name a few. The robots are appealing and engaging to the children because they resemble cartoon characters, are child-sized, life-like, and can move, speak, and drive a “vehicle.” Most importantly, the vehicles and robots are customized to meet the specific needs of our program and the school districts within the service area.
