Thumby

This extremely cute and extremely teeny weeny video game console has captured our hearts! It comes with 5 pre-loaded games that make teensy sounds… so cute. It has 2MB of storage, the battery is rechargeable of course, it can hang from a keychain so you can play a little any time you’re sitting around waiting for something. 

This little gadget is also perfect STEM thing for anyone who wants to learn how to code your own games! You can either download new games that other people have made or make your own using the in-browser coding app on the Thumby website (using either Blockly which is great for beginners, or Arduino C/C++). 

What if you’re a programming genius but you just don’t know it yet? There’s only one way to find out…

For ages 8 and up!
