Finally, something he'll pick up
instead of the tablet.
Across a guided 25-week course, your kid wires and codes real Arduino electronics — from a first blinking light to a working RFID door lock. Every week the lessons teach him step by step — you don't need to know a thing. It's the same build-and-watch-it-work rush games give, now in his hands instead of on a screen.
Buy once. Start whenever. Go at your own pace. Keep access forever.
Not a class schedule. Not a subscription. Not a deadline. Just 25 projects in your account, waiting whenever your kid is ready.
The 25-Week Learn & Build Kit
Everything one kid needs for 25 weeks of real Arduino engineering. One kit, one price, ships tomorrow.
Most "STEM toys" are toys. This isn't.
When you buy a guitar for a kid, you don't ask "what age is guitar for?". You buy them lessons, hand them the instrument, and trust they'll figure it out. That's what this is.
This is real Arduino. The same platform engineers, hobbyists, and university students use. The kit comes with an Arduino Uno R3, 37 other components, and a 25-week curriculum that teaches a complete beginner — kid or adult — how to actually build with them.
It's built for complete beginners from around age 8 all the way up to adults — plenty of parents (and especially grandparents) build alongside their kid. The curriculum doesn't change. The patience required does.
25 weeks. 25 real builds.
Each week introduces a new component and a new concept. By the end, your kid has built a working RFID-secured door lock — wired, coded, debugged. Not a toy version. The real thing.
Open the kit. Open the curriculum. Build.
The kit arrives
38 components. Arduino Uno R3, breadboard, sensors, motors, displays, jumper wires — everything they'll need for 25 weeks. Ships next day. Free worldwide.
They open the curriculum
Web-based learning portal (works on any computer, phone, or tablet). Two video walkthroughs to get started. Then 25 weekly projects with diagrams, full code, line-by-line explanations, and troubleshooting.
They get stuck. We help.
Circuit not working? They send a photo. An electronics engineering graduate replies within 24 hours — usually within a few. Forever. No bot, no FAQ wall, no upsell.
38 components. One real Arduino.
A complete electronics workbench in a box. Every part matches a project in the curriculum — no filler, no leftovers, nothing decorative.
38 components — every part for 25 weeks of building. From the Arduino Uno R3 itself to the resistors, jumper wires, and final RFID module.

The full 25-week curriculum. Lifetime access.
Two videos to get started, then 25 weekly project lessons. Each lesson includes:
- Full code, line by line
- Circuit diagrams you can follow
- "What's actually happening" walkthroughs
- Troubleshooting guides
- "Try for Yourself" challenges
Plus an Arduino cheat sheet and 50+ extra builds.
The kit is the guitar. The curriculum is the lessons.
Anyone can sell you 38 components in a box. What makes this work is what comes with them: a structured 25-week curriculum that turns a complete beginner into someone who can wire, code, and debug real Arduino projects.
Built from years of self-taught experimentation — every dead-end, every "why isn't this working", every YouTube rabbit hole and forum post — distilled into 25 lessons that actually make sense the first time.
Read it anywhere. Code on a real computer.
Lessons load on any phone or tablet. Coding happens on a Mac or Windows machine using the free Arduino IDE — the same software professional engineers use.
No deadlines. The kit waits.
Some kids do four projects in a weekend. Some take a year. Some pause for school terms and pick it up in summer. There's no clock.
A look at Week 1 inside the portal. Every week follows the same structure.
Built by kids who wouldn't stop opening things.
We were the kids who took apart radios, hairdryers, remote-control cars — not to break them, to understand them. Rooms full of wires and half-finished circuits. Every blinking LED felt like proof we could make something real.
But learning electronics the self-taught way was brutal: scattered tutorials, dead ends, YouTube rabbit holes, and nobody to ask why the LED wasn't lighting up. We watched friends give up — not because they weren't smart enough, but because every resource was either a 10-minute toy or a 400-page textbook with nothing in between.
Techbotics Academy is the curriculum we wish we'd had at 12, and the one we'd want our own kids to learn from. Everything we figured out the long way — without a guide, without a teacher — written down so the next kid doesn't have to.
If your kid (or you) gets stuck, our support team will help — they're electronics engineers, not a chatbot or a CS rep reading from a script. Send a photo of the circuit. They'll tell you what's wrong.
Loved by parents. Chosen by kids.
"He's 10, and I honestly bought it hoping it might pull him off the iPad a little. Now most nights there are wires all over the kitchen table and he's the one showing me what he made. First thing in years he's picked over a screen."
"We've got a whole drawer of half-finished STEM kits, so I was skeptical. This is the first one he's actually stuck with — he's on week 12 and still asks to do the next one. The night the door lock finally worked, he made us all come watch."
"I gave this to my grandson for his birthday, two states away, half expecting it to end up in a closet. Now he video-calls me to show me what he's built — and when he got stuck, a real person on their team walked him through it, which I certainly couldn't have. Best gift I've given him."
The questions parents actually ask.
What age is this for?
Do I need to know anything about electronics or coding?
What computer do they need?
Is this a subscription? Do I need to finish in 25 weeks?
When will it ship?
What if my kid gets stuck?
What if a part breaks?
How is this different from a $40 Arduino kit on Amazon?
How is this different from KiwiCo or similar STEM boxes?
$199 — really?
Does this make a good gift?
What if we don't love it?
Open it. Use it. If it's not the real deal, send it back.
Open the box. Let your kid try the first three projects. If it doesn't click — for them, for you, for any reason at all — send it back within 30 days for a full refund.
Used. Opened. Missing pieces. Doesn't matter.
25 weeks from now, your kid will have built something real.
An Arduino-powered RFID door lock. From raw components. Wired and coded by them. Plus 24 builds of skill they collected on the way there.
