Mover Kit – Active wearable that kids make & code by Technology Will Save Us — Kickstarter

Category Members News People Posted on:

Launched today via a worldwide Kickstarter campaign, Mover Kit is part iconic accessory and part education tech toy. It’s a wearable that kids, young and old, make and code themselves. The latest make it yourself kit from the London's Technology Will Save Us, Mover Kit encourages imagination and play through movement and activity while teaching kids fundamental skills around programming, electronics and how to solve problems creatively with computational thinking.

“We take on this philosophy and tap into the hobbies and passions we love - to create toys that kids make, code and invent with,” comments Bethany Koby, co-founder and CEO of Technology Will Save Us. “We designed Mover Kit alongside children and tested prototypes with over 300 kids. They showed us that they were most excited about technology that they could wear and that responded to activities and we’ve been delighted with the response to the finished product.”
