It features reusable plastic components, sensors, and rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Using the award-winning micro:bit controller and the free MakeCode platform, learners progress from visual coding blocks to Python and JavaScript, making it ideal for home or school STEM education. ## Description An intuitive, state-of-the-art building and robotics kit for serious engineers and makers! Packed with hundreds of durable, reusable components, and designed for both home and school use, this comprehensive and engaging curriculum gives young learners the tools to explore the field of robotic engineering like never before. The kit begins with instructions to build 14 simple motorized robots with sensors that can control the robots. With over one hundred snap-together, versatile building pieces, kids can also construct new robots of their own design! Once you’ve built your robots, you’ll add code to program them and bring them to life. Robotics Workshop utilizes the award-winning micro:bit, a tiny computer that kids can program using the free web or app-based platform MakeCode. Through MakeCode, kids can begin their coding journey with easy-to-understand visual block-based coding, and then stretch themselves to learn the most relevant coding languages of the tech industry: Python and JavaScript. A 32-page full-color manual and tons of online resources feature step-by-step illustrated building instructions and explanations for how to program and operate the robot models. Also needed: a tablet running iOS or Android and/or a PC with Internet access. MakeCode is free and web-based, so there are no PC system requirements.

We have now bought more micro bit chips and have been diving into making our own projects. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good *by P***G on April 4, 2020* 10 types of variable assemble, good age appropriate, detailed manual. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It looks complicated, but after reading the manual. It pretty advanced for a child. In my opinion *by D***N on November 18, 2017* I've set this aside until I can devote full time on this. It's like a course in basic robotic design. ## Frequently Bought Together - Thames & Kosmos Robotics Workshop with Micro:Bit STEM Experiment Kit, Creative, Educational Coding & Programming Curriculum for Home & School Use, Utilizes MakeCode App to Learn Python, Javascript - Teach Tech Mech 5, Mechanical Coding Robot --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.uy/products/638622926-robotics-workshop-with-micro-bit-stem-experiment-kit-creative-educational](https://www.desertcart.uy/products/638622926-robotics-workshop-with-micro-bit-stem-experiment-kit-creative-educational) --- *Product available on Desertcart Uruguay* *Store origin: UY* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
