Product Description
PIPER MAKE - THE AFFORDABLE ALL ROUND SELF-BUILD STEM SOLUTION FOR KS2 AND ABOVE!
Piper Make blends buildable hardware with easy-to-understand coding lessons to create an easy introduction to physical computing! Combine Piper’s block coding platform with a wide range of physical circuits with the Raspberry Pi Pico-based Piper Make Base Station, and expand into even more areas of STEM with Piper's Widgets.
The Piper Make Base Station is the base kit for all Piper Make products, including the Raspberry Pi microcontroller which serves as the brains of all the missions you’ll find on our free, drag-and-drop coding platform make.playpiper.com.
With the Base Station Kit, you will be able to access (for free!) 14 self-guided coding lessons on Piper Make - from blinking an LED to making music with resistors. As you help Piperbot and Pip explore Mars in our storyline, you’ll learn computational thinking, basic circuitry, and so much more.
The Piper Make Base Station includes the Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller and basic breadboarding equipment including:
- 830 Hole Breadboard
- Jumper Wires (M2M)
- Resistors (10)
- Tactile Buttons
- LEDs
- Micro-USB to USB-A cable, 1 meter
- Laser Cut, Laser Etched Wood Base
- Piper Make Stickers
With the Piper Make Base Station, you can also get add-ons like a Controller, Walker, Rover, Hear Rate Sensor, Solar House and more! The Base Station is REQUIRED as the base for these add-ons - See the Piper Make section of this website to browse and buy!
