The Franzis Raspberry Pi for Kids kit helps you develop your child's interest and skills in computing, coding and electronics. The supplied tutorial manual is a comprehensive getting started guide to the basics of the Raspberry Pi in a beginner friendly way. Step by step, they write programs, from very simple to more complex ones, and build exciting electronic circuits. When it gets a little more complicated, there are useful tips to help them keep moving forward. Clear diagrams show them how to plug the electronics together (no soldering) and programming examples with the Scratch drag and drop graphical tool brings it to life.
This is a programming tutorial that includes modelling clay too! It sounds crazy, but it is actually really simple. With the included components, your kids are up and running in no time. To start with, they learn to flash a single LED and by the end of the book they will be lighting up the whole room with disco lights. And they can control all this with modelling clay contacts they made themselves, together with the popular Raspberry Pi computer. Everyone will be impressed by their efforts!
