Questions
Is it safe for children?
Yes. All circuits use small batteries (3 V to 9 V) and are done under a trainer's watch.
Does my child need to buy a kit?
The centre provides kits for class work. Buying a kit for home is optional.
What will my child build?
Simple circuits, an Arduino LED project and a small robot such as an obstacle avoider.
Is coding needed?
Basic Arduino coding is taught from scratch in the course.
