Primo - Teaching programming logic to children age 4 to 7 by primo.io

As Seen on Primo is a play-set that uses shapes, colours and spacial awareness to teach programming logic through a tactile, warm and magical learning experience. Primo makes an incredibly important, but otherwise uninteresting topic to children, enjoyable and fun. Primo is a play set composed by 3 main items that combined create the Primo play experience. 1 • Cubetto a friendly robot. 2 • The board, a physical programming interface 3 • The code, a set of instruction blocks (Forward, Left, Right and Function) The goal of the game is to guide Cubetto to his destination, represented by a house, a big cube, or any other object of your choice. The robot executes in sequence the instructions placed in the board. There's not a single solution or path to follow, it's also interesting to see how different children come up with different solutions. The queue is what children are basically playing with. No screens, no visible technology. Skills are mastered gradually. 40,000 | Pimp my Cubetto

Touch Board: Interactivity Everywhere by Bare Conductive Wow! We've been overwhelmed with the response to the Touch Board campaign! We've heard from so many of you about the amazing things you plan to make with your boards. We can't wait to see what you do. As promised in our stretch goals, we're busy making stencils, counting out jars of paint and planning hackdays. If you're interested in running a hackday as part of our Global Hackday program, get in touch. Because of the massive response, we've set up an order system on bareconductive.com that anyone can use. This is just the beginning of the Touch Board so watch for updates, pass the word around and get your brains in gear. Wow! 1. 2. The Touch Board is a tool to make your projects interactive, responsive, smart or just fun. The Touch Board is designed as an easy-to-use platform for a huge range of projects, whether it's painting a lightswitch on your wall, making a paper piano or something nobody's thought of yet. We've worked hard to pack the Touch Board with awesome features: Nope!

BRYX: LEGO + Arduino + Bluetooth Smart by Daniel McShan Toy firetrucks that you build and then program. Imagine your iPhone (or compatible Android device) controlling the firetruck - flashing its lights, making sounds, driving around, extending its ladder, maybe even detect fires and putting them out? All using familiar building blocks. Or maybe you have a brilliant idea for a hardware project to add to the "Internet of Things" and you need a solid, modular framework to prototype and eventually deploy? BRYX are iPhone controllable, Arduino programmable, LEGO compatible building blocks. Similar to the Arduino "shield" concept, we add functionality by simply stacking BRYX. The following pics show a sampling of our prototype pieces, both inside and out: Video demonstrating iPhone/Bluetooth connectivity. BRYXlite - a RGB USB status light - ATTINY85 with RGB LED. Producing BRYX will involve several steps; this list describes how we plan to execute each: BRYXsound - Like a speaker for your BRYX creations.
