Ages 11+

These kits are recommended for ages 11 and over. 

They can be programmed using drag and drop interfaces such as:

  • https://makecode.microbit.org/
  • https://makecode.adafruit.com/

Alternatively, some kits also support easier text-based programming languages such as JavaScript and Python, for those with more advanced skills. Some assistance to install editors Python can be useful but not essential at this level.

Some e-textiles/wearable kits may require basic sewing and fabric (scissors) skills.

Use of a screwdriver may be required to build kits at this level.

Some kits require basic soldering skills, for a small number of components, with adult supervision.
