With many parents looking to teach their children as much as possible about technology early on to get them ready for schooling, the 'IQube' Electronics Learning Kit is designed to help mini makers explore their capabilities.
Boasting a fun and interactive interface, the 'IQube' Electronics Learning Kit utilizes small electronic modules and the accompanying smartphone app to let young makers let their imagination run wild. Currently funding on Indiegogo, the 'IQube' Electronics Learning Kit enables children to learn the basics of the products around them and to start projects whenever they're ready.
The technology-focused kit is one of many initiatives by makers to help offset the growing demand for children to be as technology-fluent as possible to get them ready for the job market of the future.
