Robotics hobby kits for kids?

Question

My child wants to learn how to build a functioning robot. I'm delighted, but haven't been able to find a beginning robotics kit for kids in toy stores or even educational stores. Does anyone know where I can find this? Is there a web site that specializes in this sort of thing?
