We have 6 Dash robots that can be used for Push and Pull experiments. The bulldozer attachment can be used to push. Students could use lego to build a trailer to attach to Dash to allow him to pull.

Bee Bots and Blue Bots also have trailers to pull things. Cardboard and blue tack make good bulldozers to push objects.
