Are you drawn to visual, hands - on projects? Ever dreamt of building your own tablet but didn't know where to start? Now's your golden opportunity! The award - winning Kano Complete Computer Kit, paired with an engaging storybook, lets you build a powerful computer and understand how it comes to life. This kit includes a Raspberry Pi 3, an HD touchscreen, a wireless keyboard, a DIY speaker, a custom case, power and HDMI cables, a memory card, a USB power supply, an illustrated storybook, and 4 sheets of stickers and case cards. No technical expertise is needed, and the step - by - step Kano Book will guide you all the way. Its user - friendly visual coding environment makes it easy for anyone to create and have fun. It offers a friendly introduction to programming languages like Python, Javascript, and Unix. Kids can learn Python through 'Kano Blocks' while making Minecraft and Pong, and explore the Linux world via Terminal Quest and making Snake. There are over 150 hours of Kano Coding Challenges! The motto is 'Don't just play games, change the rules.' Kano is widely used in hundreds of schools across the US, UK, EU, Asia, and Africa. Check out Kano's educators' page. The kit also comes with Kano World, a global community that welcomes users of all skill levels. Note that children aged 6 - 8 may need supervision when reading the Kano Book and assembling the components, while those 8 and older can work independently on their Kano.

Using the Kano Computer Kit is a breeze. First, grab the Kano Book that comes with the kit. It's like a storybook with step - by - step instructions, so follow each page to assemble the components one by one. You'll put together the Raspberry Pi 3, connect the HD touchscreen, set up the wireless keyboard, and add the DIY speaker. Don't forget to insert the memory card and connect the power and HDMI cables. When it comes to coding, start with the visual coding environment. It's really easy to use. You can learn Python by making games like Minecraft and Pong using 'Kano Blocks'. And if you want to explore Linux, go on the Terminal Quest and make Snake. For children aged 6 - 8, an adult should be around to help when reading the Kano Book and assembling the parts. But kids 8 and older can handle it on their own. To maintain the kit, keep it in a clean and dry place. Avoid dropping or hitting the components. If the touchscreen gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to clean it. And make sure to turn off the power supply when you're not using the computer to save energy and protect the components.
