Make It Move

If you can tell someone how to fetch water, you can program a robot.

Ages 7โ€“128 modules ๐Ÿชจ Starts with no device

Robots are not magic and they are not alive. A robot is a body that moves, a sense that notices, and a list of steps that joins the two. You are going to build all three โ€” starting with your own legs, ending with a rover made from a jerry can and a toy motor.

For a parent or teacher

Your child will learn sequencing, loops, sensing and simple mechanics without any kit at all, then apply them to a working salvaged-parts rover. By module 8 they can build a small motorised vehicle from scrap and explain how each part earns its place.
