Product Description


The best way to start learning real code. Use this all-in-one kit from Let’s Start Coding to build gadgets and games while exploring the core concepts behind computer code. Designed for the absolute beginner who wants to have AND learn something valuable, this kit delivers knowledge in an engaging way. You’ll enjoy tinkering and experimenting with what’s possible with only a few components and a little knowledge of computer programming.

This kit combines easy-to-understand electronic gadgets (lights, speaker, buttons) with pre-written code examples so that you can start learning real code. Inside the handy ‘code toolbox’, you’ll find over 10 electronics components, including:
– 1 Maker Board microcontroller
– 1 Mini Carrier Board
– 4 pushbuttons
– 3 single color LED lights
– 2 multi color LED lights
– 1 speaker

Electronics for beginners: no breadboards, tiny resistors, or jumper wires required!

Code for beginners: Cool projects to get you started and then the environment for you to keep building!

Compatible with:
Windows 7,8,10
Mac OS X 7,8,9,10
Chromebook
Linux (no official support)

Requires:
Internet connection
Our free software (Windows and Mac) or Google Chrome App (Chromebook) to code

All resources are provided free at our website: www.letsstartcoding.com

Sept. 2017 Update: Maker Board now has two fuses to make it less likely to ‘pop’ an LED light. This allowed us to remove the fuse from Carrier Board for a tougher, simpler kit. June 2017 Update:
This product now contains Carrier Board 2.0, which has:
– More clear numbering so that ports are easier to see.
– Fewer “+” ports.
– No AA battery pack connectors. Maker Board circuits can be powered by a 5V USB battery or USB port on a computer.
– Snug ports so components have a more reliable connection.nineteen

Great for elementary students I purchased this for my 10-year-old son to explore his interest in coding. From the first time he opened it he was hooked, and it was amazing the speed at which he developed new skills. We have since purchased the expanded set as his skills have grown. This kit is a great way to let kids learn base coding in small steps that allow them to learn on their own seeing their progress,

Not much tech or quality gadgetry for the money, but my 10yo really seems to be getting into it. Some of the components aren’t that high-end, such as the retractable USB cable, which broke the 2nd day. Also, the green LED light is pretty weak compared to the other lights. The idea of thinking I paid so much for cheap components doesn’t make me feel excited or good about my purchase.That being said, I can’t say I regret my decision either. My kid is really excited about this set and this is helping him to take his coding to the next level. He started with Hour Of Code last year,…

YES YES YES. This is a quality product. I just can’t say enough. I have been an educator for 25 years. I have to say this is one of the best tools for educating programing available. It educates through every learning mode. There are many ways in which the gratification of learning is achieved. Students will benefit from video tutorials, and written explanations. All the aspects of actual program are the experience. This is a first class product that was undoubtably written by educators and programmers cooperatively.My nine year old daughter was…
