Lights flash, points score, and celebrations begin! In Arcade Games, campers design their own interactive basketball shooter arcade game. Every basket triggers movement, lights, and excitement, just like a real arcade. Through hands-on building and beginner-friendly coding, your child sees how code, circuits, and mechanics come together to create an interactive invention they can play again and again. Campers work through creative build challenges where imagination and testing guide the process. Kids will: - Learn the engineering design process for product design - Ideating and brainstorm makes a fun, entertaining arcade game - Learn about simple machines and the fundamentals of Robotics - Coding fundamentals - Build circuits with motors and sensors to design and build an exciting Basketball aracade game with Micro:bit that can keep scores, light up in the dark, or make sounds - You Decide! BONUS: : MICRO:BIT and accompanying motor and sensors are complementary. Students will take the entire project home
