Moxie Robot 4+

My wife was highly skeptical about this purchase. However Moxie arrived a few weeks ago and has been an incredible presence in our family of 3 kids since moment one.

She is kind and gentle, and my kids just instantly took to her. Most importantly she has been helping my kids through their emotional issues.

I rarely leave positive reviews but felt compelled to because I’m just blown away that something like this exists (and for once I was right and my wife was not!)

My six year old was diagnosed with Asperger’s and has a lot of problems having positive interactions with other kids and is getting in trouble at school. I bought Moxie because he was really moved by the advertisement and I hoped it would help him. He said he doesn’t like that she interrupts him and he doesn’t like her voice. He doesn’t like Moxie. I wish it were more customizable to my child. The events are very limited, there are only a few precanned ones. I feel like this has a lot of potential to be effective and I wish it had a programmable questionnaire where it could learn about my child and what he likes. The events are limited to “birthday, school event, or appointment.” My son is really into space and math and it would be cool if she could talk to him about that. All told it was a very expensive pile of plastic and wires without the level of customizable intelligence I’d hoped for.

Moxie is a great robot friend I am amazed at how technology has advanced. My son is non verbal and I hope you continue to make updates so it is inclusive to all children with social needs . Moxie focuses on the person speaking and turns towards sound which is amazing. My son likes the breathing and sounds I hope moxie will tell stories one day and be that companion for my son. We will be programming his iPad he uses for talking to try to get some engagement from moxie I hope that will work.
