A new title in the QuestKids(R) children's series that was launched by In Easy Steps in 2018, designed to make learning fun for children.

Coding with the micro:bit - Create Cool Programming Projects introduces you to the hardware and software features of the BBC micro:bit, including the built-in microphone, speaker, and touch sensor added in micro:bit version 2. You'll learn new skills such as how to code your micro:bit to play music, send messages, display pictures, and detect light.

  • Getting started: This section gives you a tour of the micro:bit and gets you started with coding your first program.
  • Basics: Here, you'll learn to display images and text on the micro:bit's LED grid.
  • Inputs: This section shows you how to work with the input systems on the micro:bit, like the buttons, the accelerometer, and the light sensor.

    • Once you've mastered these skills, the book guides you through 10 exciting projects, including a temperature sensor, simple interactive games, and even an alarm system!

    1. The 99 game
    2. Heads or tails
    3. Steady hand game
    4. Temperature display
    5. LED control
    6. Trespasser alarm

    Each project has been designed to work with both versions of the micro:bit.

    You'll find "Try This" sections that suggest other ways for you to try out your new knowledge. These ideas will inspire you to build your own projects with the micro:bit.

    So whether you're a coding newbie, or you think you know it all, grab your micro:bit and let's get coding!
