I have found the components in this kit to be high quality and reliable. More importantly this kit is well thought out. No, it doesn't have 500 components, but most of the time kids don't need/use all those anyway. Every piece in this kit is used in the lessons and thoughtfully added because it serves a purpose. I loved the packaging because it keeps things organized and my kid loved it because it feels special and "official". Everything stays in one place when she's done using it so I'm not hunting down parts all the time :) . Even though I'm not the actual coder I have looked over the lessons and I'm impressed with how things are laid out in a sequence. It's lots of little experiments for her to try. As a mom who has tried lots of these types of things to get/keep my daughter interested in STEM, I recommend. Review: Perfect for kids wanting to learn coding - Worth the hype!

This includes Windows 7 and up & Mac OSX 10.9 and up. Our kits are not compatible with tablets or smartphones. We do not support Linux computers, but they may work. **Q: Do I need an internet connection?** A: Yes, our coding software is online. You can use a Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Opera web browser to code. **Q: Do I have to subscribe to the coding projects/software?** A: No, our projects and resources are free and open for anyone with a kit. There are no logins or passwords for kids to forget - they can just open a web browser and start coding! **Q: Can my kids share this kit?** A: Yes. When code is uploaded to the kit, it overwrites the last program that was loaded. You can share a kit and upload an infinite number of programs to it. Kids can also work together on the challenges - called pair programming - and most enjoy that. **Q: Do I need to start with another Let's Start Coding kit before I try this one?** A: No, all of our kits are designed for total beginners. Each kit covers coding basics like loops, variables, and functions. We recommend getting the kit that best fits your child's interests and getting other kits over time as they complete them. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Happy with the quality, thrilled with the lessons *by V***N on September 30, 2020* Having read some of the other reviews and tried other coding/STEM kits, I disagree with some of the naysayers here.

Bought for my 10 year old son and he loves it. Be aware that you must have a USB port and google chrome on your computer (my Mac doesn’t). This is by far his favorite birthday present this year. He has spent hours on it. 10/10 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Transition Product for Kids *by J***Y on August 30, 2020* My kid, currently 10, has been playing with coding for a couple years now. We had run out of quality products that would allow her to move forward without jumping into complicated text books, and we saw her losing interest with the more "kid" oriented coding stuff that she'd already mastered. This kit, though pricey, is worth the expense. It comes nicely packaged and provides a ton of education. My daughter's said "It's awesome! The only thing missing is that I can't just build code on my own. Oh, and I wish there were more lessons." To me, this has been a product that has helped reinvigorate her love of coding, while providing an appropriate bridge to more complex products. Now I just have to find that next step up. ## Frequently Bought Together - Base Kit Computer Coding Game for Kids 8-12+ and Teens to Learn Code & Electronics.
