We have handpicked some of our favourite electronics kits and DIY computer kits to help kids of all ages learn to code, use as part of home-schooling or just have some fun at home. Coding is a fantastic learning tool that provides key STEM skills for a child’s development and future, from problem-solving, maths, creativity & communication.
Try the OKdo Raspberry Pi Starter Kit to easily build a computer at home based on the popular Raspberry Pi. Get creative turning paper into light using our Electric Paint Lamp Kit.
