Woot currently offers the littleBits STEAM Music Coding Kit for $29.99 Prime shipped. Delivery will run you an extra $6. Typically fetching closer to $50 at Amazon, today’s offer is good for a 40% discount, beats our previous mention by $8, and is the second-best we’ve seen to date. This coding kit is centered around building and customizing a synth guitar, which can be programed with personalized sound samples and more. The components all click together with a breadboard-style design that can even be reassembled into various other instruments, or leveraged for something entirely different thanks to the companion app and coding features. Rated 3.9/5 stars and you can get a closer look in our launch coverage. Head below for more.
For around $30, there aren’t too many coding experiences you’ll find for less. But if it’s just more generalized STEAM you’re looking to introduce your kids to, this Inventor’s Box includes seven different challenges that’ll help introduce them to various science and engineering fundamentals. It only goes for $20 at Amazon and comes backed by a 4.4/5 star rating from over 225 customers.
