• CODING FOR KIDS: Kids learn real coding with 100+ projects and hands-on circuits. Designed for boys and girls with no coding experience, but who want to learn by building real electronic circuits with immediate results!
ALL INCLUSIVE: Everything kids need is in the kit, including components like LED light strip, speaker, light, temperature, and sound sensors, buttons, and an LCD screen. Free coding software available for download.
AWARD WINNING: Ultimate Kit has won the Family Choice Seal of Approval, Gold Award, Modern Library Platinum Award, and Family Choice Award. Built by teachers, engineers, and designers to make kids coding fun!
GREAT GIFT: Makes a great birthday or Christmas STEM gift for a future engineer, scientist, designer, or computer programmer. Loved by boys and girls aged 8, 9, 10,11,12,13,14,15+. Builds critical thinking and coding skills, not just more screen time.
CHALLENGING FUN: Real typed coding means there are no limits to what kids can code. They will be using the same coding language as NASA and major tech companies. Free software compatible with Windows, Mac, or Chromebook computers. Requires an internet connection. Not compatible with tablets or smartphones.
All the fun of coding and circuits. None of the headache. Let's Start Coding has combined easy-to-use electronics, online lessons and videos, and example code to bring your kids the best way to start learning real code. Parents, you don't have to be an expert to get them started; kids start with our pre-written code and 'tinker', experimenting with the code and trying out our challenges.
The Let's Start Coding resources have been designed by educators and coders to teach the core concepts in a way that engages kids, challenges their minds, and introduces them to core coding concepts while they have fun! Our team has spent hundreds of hours leading workshops, camps, and classes through the beginning of their coding journey, so the method is proven and based on feedback from real beginners.
Finally, an introduction to real, typed coding that doesn't require textbooks, in-person tutors, or searching for high-quality information online. If you really want your kids to get ahead with your coding skills, the Let's Start Coding kits are the all-in-one product you're looking for.
Ultimate Kit contains everything in Base Kit, plus even more coolness! Ultimate Kit contains 23 electronic components that will get kids 8-12 started coding in no time. Combine an LCD screen, flexible strip of LED lights, sensors, LEDs, a speaker, buttons, turn knob, and programmable microcontroller to 110 projects that use real, typed code! Perfect for use at home, at school, in a summer camp, or as part of a homeschool curriculum.

When you buy a Let's Start Coding kit, you get much more than a box of 'stuff'. Free with every kit is access to our downloadable coding software for Windows, Mac, or Chromebook computers, plus tons of learning content. For the Ultimate Kit, this includes:
- Over 100 sequenced project pages that cover the fundamentals of all coding languages
- Over 2200 lines of example code that can be modified or tinkered with
- Nearly 9 hours of walkthrough videos that accompany the projects,explaining how the code works so kids can make changes of their own
- Code 'challenges' and 'bug hunts' that encourage kids to interact and engage with the code, strenghtening their learning
Using the free software for Windows, Mac, or Chromebook desktops or laptops (no tablets or phones), coders can complete the following projects:
