“The micro:bit V2 GO - Starter Kit is a great way to introduce kids to coding. It includes everything you need to start, and it’s super easy to use. An excited 8-year-old used it to program their Cutebot robot in no time — making it move and flash lights with simple code. It’s fun, educational, and perfect for young creators!”

“You can't beat the microbit for children and/or beginners. Cheap, cheerful, and packed with a remarkable number of features: LEDs, speaker, microphone, ADC, PWM, light sensor, sound sensor, temperature sensor, accelerometer, compass, Bluetooth, data logger, and 4 general purpose input/output pins for connecting analogue or digital devices, servos etc. If you've got more than one you can make them talk to each other. Coding is block-based (like Scratch) through the Microbit website. Brilliant piece of kit.”

“I was very worried that I wouldn’t know how to help my little one set the micro bit up but it was easy to follow. Chose to order through PiHut rather than online distributor and it was nice to have a clear idea of add-on purchases that brought the microbit to life.”

“A nice little bit of hardware. My son wanted us to get one as they use them at school. On its own however it is limited out of the box. Still, great little tool for learning python.”

“Great for Learning and Experimenting with Coding! I recently got the BBC Micro:bit, and it has been an excellent tool for learning and experimenting with coding and electronics. It’s compact, beginner-friendly, and packed with features that make coding fun and interactive. Pros: ✅ Easy to Use – The drag-and-drop interface with MakeCode is perfect for beginners, while Python support allows for more advanced coding. ✅ Versatile Sensors – It comes with built-in sensors like an accelerometer, compass, and temperature sensor, which allow for creative projects. ✅ LED Display & Buttons – The 5x5 LED matrix is great for simple animations, and the programmable buttons make interactive projects easy. ✅ Wireless Communication – The Bluetooth feature enables connectivity with other devices and Micro:bits, expanding project possibilities. ✅ Great for Kids & Education – Perfect for introducing children to coding in a hands-on way. Cons: ⚠ Limited Memory – It has some limitations when running complex programs. ⚠ No Built-in Battery – You need an external power source or battery pack for portable projects. Overall, the Micro:bit is a fantastic tool for beginners, students, and hobbyists looking to explore coding and electronics. It’s affordable, easy to use, and offers endless possibilities for creative projects. Highly recommended!”
