This study aimed to develop a pioneering augmented reality (AR) environment focused on nurturing early computational thinking skills in kindergarten through second-grade students. Rooted in embodied cognition and social robotics, the project seamlessly integrated AR technology with a physically embodied robot named Linibot. Children engaged in a chessboard-like grid navigation, guided by Linibot through a tablet displaying AR obstacles. The educational objectives encompassed building STEM problem-solving skills, understanding symbols and sequences, and fostering confidence in technology utilization. Pre- and post-tests were employed to assess the impact of the AR environment on computational thinking skills within an intervention group. Developed and refined iteratively over two and a half years, the environment underwent testing with thirty-five children in diverse settings, including a showcase event involving twenty children. The ongoing analysis of interaction logs aims to evaluate children's performance, refine AR obstacles and robot cues, and present findings in this poster session for discussions on implications for developmentally appropriate learning and ecologically valid assessment. Preliminary results from five students in the intervention group revealed improvements in task performance related to path-finding tasks compared to the pre-test. The average duration of task completion decreased by 42%, the average number of instances of avoiding difficult problems substantially decreased by 80%, and the number of missions achieved increased by 80%. This impact was more pronounced for students who faced greater challenges during the pre-tests. The preliminary findings suggest that the proposed AR educational tool not only enhanced students' computational thinking but also influenced their learning behavior, encouraging them to tackle difficult problems rather than avoid them. Future studies will conduct a comparative analysis between the control and intervent
