Microbit Virtual Pet

Bring your imagination to life by creating your very own virtual pet! In this hands-on workshop, kids will use block-based coding on iPads to design a digital animal with unique emotions, actions, and personality. Once coded, they’ll transfer their creation onto a Microbit circuit board, turning their virtual pet into a real-world interactive companion.

Along the way, children will learn the fundamentals of coding, logic, and digital design, while also exploring how hardware and software work together. This workshop builds problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking skills - all while having fun creating a pet that responds and reacts in surprising ways.
