The weather station kit was a nice project to show my little daughter she can also enjoy technology. It was easy to setup but the only thing was that the reading cards included were not clear to understand. We used the youtube videos who showed us the step by step guide. Very useful. She checks the weather every morining now!

This kit is just awesome! It comes in a nice box with everything included to get started. The manuals are short, but no need for long ones. It's pretty straight forward. A few drag and drop commands are available as example. If you want to make it complex, you can! My son (7yrs) put almost everything together by himself. He's very happy with the weather station.

I bought this to build with my 8 year old daughter and she loved it, it got her right into coding! The instruction cards are a nice touch and assembly is fairly easy with just six nuts and bolts. The finished article is very nice, made better by a healthy dose of cute stickers. The kitty case available separately does fit with this kit and adds extra colour.
