The experiments included are: say 'Hello' to the BBC micro:bit, using an LDR and analogue inputs, dimming an LED using a potentiometer, using a transistor to drive a motor, using the accelerometer to control motor speed, setting the tone with a piezo buzzer, wind power, making a game using the compass, capacitor charge circuit and using an RGB LED.To get you off to a flying start, we have included an easy to follow tutorial book which guides you through everything you will need to know about programming the BBC micro:bit. You don't need any experience with programming as the tutorial book will guide you every step of the way. You'll be programming and creating circuits in no time!The inventor's kit for the BBC micro:bit provides a fantastic way of learning how to construct and control electronic circuits. The BBC micro:bit has a selection of pins that are located on the bottom edge of its PCB. By using our specially designed Edge Connector Board for the BBC micro:bit in conjunction with the breadboard, it is easy to use these pins to connect additional components to the BBC micro:bit.Note: BBC micro:bit is NOT included. Directions Included Review: This is a great piece of kit - This is a great piece of kit. You'll need to buy the Micro Bit separately for around £17. This kit comes with a nicely detailed book. The book takes you through 10 experiments, each one getting harder than the next. It shows how to wire up the breadboard and program the Micro Bit via the web, it also shows you the circuit diagram. My 12 year old loved it and already completed the first experiment in about 10 mins. Review: Perfect! My 7 year old loves this kit! - Breadboard and adapter make it super easy to connect components to your microbit. They are just normal components, so you can connect anything to it. Writing diagrams and code examples are clear and simple. ## Features - This Inventor's Kit for the micro:bit is the perfect way to get started with programming and hardware interaction with the micro:bit.
