Internet of Things workshop with littleBits

Hello, and welcome!

Aim:

  • Build your own Thing for the Internet using littleBits in small teams
  • Demonstrate the Thing you've made to everyone
  • Write up how others (children) could copy your thing

Why we're doing it

I've spent the past two years teaching kids to code - littleBits are amazing but they're incredibly poorly documented. Especially when you get into actually writing real code for it! It would be great if we at BGL could populate a couple of activities kids could follow to help them get started!
