    5 Stars
    A must for both home and classroom.
    OMG, where do I start. My 9 year old son and daughter LOVE this. We played piano with bananas, had a screaming carrot, played Pac-Man with play-doh, and my kids coded their own games using Scratch (through MIT) and played their own games with the Makey Makey. Additionally, one of the kids at the school where I teach reprogrammed one of the Makey Makey's using the Arduino environment and we made a full aluminum foil foot piano for kids to jump on. I highly recommend this to introduce kids to circuits and to also introduce them to coding.
