The GoPiGo Core kit gives kids all the essential components needed to turn the Raspberry Pi into a robot. The GoPiGo is a great tool to explore the vast world of Raspberry Pi robotics, supporting multiple programming languages and allowing kids to build a bridge from coding basics in Bloxter to learning cutting-edge computer science skills with Python and Jupyter notebooks.
It's designed to help kids reach the next level and go even further. With the GoPiGo bots, kids get to connect learning to code with real-world problem-solving and use the add-on sensors and actuators to customize the GoPiGo to more easily meet their needs. From Mars rovers to self-driving cars, there is a project or lesson for everyone to explore.
