Raspberry Pi Pico W Starter Kit with 12 Detachable Sensors and Extensive Learning Guide, Raspberry Pi Starter Kit, STEM Coding Kit

Great to learn concepts of electronics and programming with kids. If you are unsure if this is for you, you can "simulate" the product on their website, even without the device. At the time of writing, find the link "Go IDE" and then "SIMULATOR". This gives you a virtual output of the actions in the browser as opposed to the device. There is also a Junior IDE with a limited set of simpler to use building blocks for smaller children. Works with 3+ years old. While PICOBLOCKY is suited for older children, and you can even inspect or write code straight in the Python programming language, which can be seen as the final way to interact with the devices. F NOTE: It only worked with Chrome browser as opposed to Firefox for us. A very productive toy that can entertain kids and parents of all ages.

Bought for my 13 year old step son (his Christmas list) Searched so many different kits that would be suitable for a beginner teen and this is great. He's super happy with it

I just received the kit and I was impressed by everything in it. It comes with the latest Pico (Pico W) which means you will be able to build projects that leverage a wifi connection (and possibly Bluetooth). I was worried that this kit would come with the older Pico and I am so glad it came with the Pico-W The other thing that I really like is that it comes with a getting started printed book. I found with other kits that come with an e-book, for young kids it's hard to follow along. I think a printed book will ease them into this topic and once they understand the instructions in a printed book, they will be able to make an easier transition to online content. The full ebook for this kit is awesome and has some fun exercises and is available as a link from the seller. I will keep updating my review as I use this kit to introduce microcontrollers and python to my kids.

They invest a lot in marketing but most website and ebook codes are incorrect. Link to git hub not working. Forget the support

South this for my godson(10years old) as he is bored with the school coding program. He jumped in with it and was loving that he could actually see stuff happing from a light coming on to a buzzer going off. The instructions are simple and the projects fun. Well worth it. Feels like scratch which aloud him to jump straight into the projects with only a little bit of playing around in the UI.
