My daughter usually loses interest in toys quickly, but she keeps coming back to this one.

★★★★★Real parts, not a toy

I wouldn't call this a toy. Real Arduino, real code — my son is actually learning how the circuits work instead of just snapping plastic pieces together. Alot of value for what you pay.

My son opened it after dinner and stayed at the table for over an hour. He was so proud when the lights finally turned on.

★★★★★the only one he didn't abandon

we've tried like 3 other kits and they all ended up in a drawer. this is the only one that didn't. he's on week 12 and still asks to do the next one. the weekly lessons are what did it i think

My granddaughter loves anything involving science, so this was a big hit. I helped her with the wiring, but she figured out most of it herself.

★★★★☆Was nervous, didn't need to be

I know NOTHING about electronics so I figured I'd have to be the teacher. I don't — it teaches him. Only reason it's 4 stars is a part was missing from our box, but they shipped a replacement fast.

Sorry about the missing sensor, Sarah — glad the replacement reached you fast. Every box is hand-checked now, and you can always reach a real engineer at support@techbotics.academy.

The box has a lot more components than I expected. My son has already completed several projects and now wants to create his own.

★★★★★He explains it to ME now

what got me is he comes and explains how the thing he built works, and he actually understands it. he used to just watch other kids build stuff on youtube. big difference

Perfect rainy-day activity. It kept both of my kids busy and away from their screens for most of the afternoon.

I was worried it might be too advanced, but the projects build up gradually. My 9-year-old started with the LED and is now working on the LCD display. He has learned a lot about circuits, patience, and problem-solving. Fixing the wiring mistakes became part of the fun.

Got burned by one of those monthly STEM boxes that quietly kept charging my card. This is one payment and done. The projects just sit in his account, no deadline, no renewals. Thank you.

We built the distance sensor together over the weekend. A few mistakes along the way, but that made it even more rewarding when it worked.

★★★★☆wish it shipped faster, but great

took about 10 days to arrive which felt long since he was so excited. once it came though he's been obsessed. we did kiwico before and it didnt stick — this one did. the door lock project was a big moment for him

Thanks Rachel — we hear you on the wait. We've since moved to next-business-day dispatch to cut that down. So glad the door lock was a big moment for him!

The questions parents actually ask.

What’s in the kit?
A genuine Arduino Uno R3 plus 37 components — sensors, motors, LEDs, displays, wires, and everything needed for all 25 projects.
Is it beginner-friendly?
Yes. It’s designed for ages 6–16 with no coding or electronics experience required.
What computer do they need?
Lessons work on any device. Coding requires a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer with the free Arduino IDE.
Is it a subscription?
No. It’s $149 once, with no renewal or expiry. Most projects take 20–40 minutes, but kids set their own pace.
Why not buy a basic Arduino kit?
This includes the kit, a structured 25-project course, troubleshooting walkthroughs, and lifetime help from a real engineer.
Is it safe?
Yes. There’s no soldering — every part runs on low-voltage USB power and plugs into a breadboard.

Try it for 30 days.

Build the first projects. If it’s not a fit, send it back for a full refund — even opened or used.
