Strawbees STEAM School Kit

This kit is to snap the micro:bit with physical Strawbees buildings and programming mechanical structures with servo motors. A way to create physical interaction with your next project! As an add-on kit, this requires the purchase of another Strawbees product for building with building pipes and connectors. Write in Microsoft MakeCode’s block-based programming platform, upload a program and remove from the computer to run on batteries.

Make physical and mechanical inventions with Micro:bit.

Physical Computing – extend programming to the physical world beyond the computer screen with creating interactive projects with the Strawbees building system.

Electronic Building Set – all electronics easily connect to Strawbees connectors and straws.

All materials are custom-made, durable, and reusable – finish building, disassemble, and begin a new project.
