Description: Welcome to Gizmo Makers Take Apart and Tinker experience —where curiosity sparks creativity!

In this hands-on workshop series, you’ll open up old electronics to see what’s inside, explore how motherboards, microcontrollers, and circuits really work, and then start designing your own device using Micro:bit, Little Bits, Circuit Playground boards and NeoPixel lights. Learn to code at your own pace, starting with block coding and earning badges as you go! Level up to JavaScript and Arduino C++  as your skills grow. Whether you’re lighting LEDs, making sensors react, or bringing wild ideas to life, Take Apart and Tinker classes are all about discovery, invention, and FUN!

Note: This class recurrs monthly with new challenges and skills to learn each session! There is something fun for both new and returning students to experience--from coding to robotics, and new take-aparts each month!
