The pieces in the kits are interchangeable?

Hi there, Many of our construction and engineering kits have interchangeable parts. Some of our Kids First kits include bulkier parts for younger children. Please contact support@thamesandkosmos.com for information about compatibility between parts in specific sets. Kind regards, Thames and Kosmos Technical Support

We are stuck on the cat. Is there a step by step video to build these robots? The directions don’t make sense and I’m an adult!

Hi. I'm sorry to hear that you are stuck. While we don't have video instructions for this model, you can access the online manual (which allows you to zoom in and get a closer look) at https://thamesandkosmos.com/manuals/full/567014_Robot_Safari_Manual.pdf If you're still having trouble, please reach out to support@thamesandkosmos.com with some additional information (what step you're unsure about and a photo of your model) and we'll follow up with some troubleshooting for you.

Do these move on theirmi u own? Or does the kid push it?

In the box it includes a motor box, if you add batteries & assembled per instructions it will move on its own. Don't put it in water.

Are the batteries and motor supposed to get really hot when using for short periods of time? We took out the batteries but they were too hot to touch.

Thank you for your question. The only time we've ever experienced this is when the end-user accidentally inserts the batteries in the wrong polarity, causing a short circuit. Please reach out to us via the Support tab on our website and a member of our Technical Support Team can follow up with you.
