My 11 year old son is very happy to have the Makey Makey

My 11 year old son is very happy to have the Makey Makey. He played with it at school and requested it. They had one in Amazon Warehouse that came to my house practically new. My son enjoys playing online games with his made up controllers> I'll update this review once he gets to play with it more.

My son loves all the things he can do with his makey makey. Recommend the Evil Genius project book for exciting things to create.

Keeps the kids busy and happy.

This has been the hit of the spring with the kids. We've had musical bananas, a sandwich space bar, water balloon instruments and a few other crazy shenanigans. How this will become an instrument for the talent show this year is yet to be determined, but I see it coming - and can't wait. This is exactly the hands-on, creative and critical thinking kids need.

did my kids have a great time with this

Holy moly, did my kids have a great time with this. They spent an entire night getting along wonderfully playing with it. They haven't gone back to it since, but I think they will eventually.

Encourage Creativity with the Makey Makey

This was my first Makey Makey invention kit and since this purchase I have ordered 5 more for my 2-6 science lab. Students LOVE the Makey Makey. We have turned pie tins and gummy worms in to game controllers for PacMan, Tetris, and Super Mario Brothers. My favorite student created projects include a tiny drum set made with Gaterade tops covered with tin foil and attached to a shoe box with tooth picks. This was a tiny drum set attached to a music program on the Makey Makey web site. We watched a TED talk and other youtube videos to introduce the Makey Makey. A fun and creative kit. It is not a toy kids will use daily but it will keep them busy for awhile and then they will come back to it monthly. Great for a classroom.

Great Father's Day gift he shared with the kiddos

This was hours of fun for both my husband and 5 year old daughter, I am sure they will go back to it a lot as there are many options to increase the difficulty level based on your child's interests and abilities. I am not sure who liked it more, my husband or my daughter ;)

Fun and easy for kids and non-techies

You can really have some fun with this with kids as young as maybe 5 (attended). There are plenty of sites online that can also be used with it; for example, hook up the Makey Makey board to bananas and plug top your computer to play music.

Easy to use, only limited by your imagination!

Purchased as a gift for my 12 year old daughter. Easy to use and lots of fun, but the novelty wore off fairly quickly. Still glad I purchased it though, very cool kit!!

TOP PICK for STEM Projects

Outstanding product. So easy and so much fun for the kids while they learn about technology. A top pick for STEM products. Can be accessed using SCRATCH programming. And can be expanded by adding Arduino piggy back board to make limitless projects. STEM Project shown features Makey Makey GO integrated to Art.... This is STEAM project.

My 13 year old son loves it.. But it is one of those novelty things that kids that age go board with after a week or so.. Not products fault!
