Part 1 Assignment 3

Makey Makey, an Invention Kit for Everyone is a development unit intended to associate regular items to PC keys. Utilizing a circuit board, alligator clips, and a USB link, the toy utilizes shut circle electrical signs to send the PC either a console stroke or mouse click signal.

There are many Makey Makey experiments done by kids. For example, fruit drums, paper keyboards, race track, and many more.

My group and I came up with an interesting and educational way for kids to play and educate themselves. So what is Makey Makey Operation for?

Educational for kids & teens ( knowing the importance of what’s right and wrong )
Learning stability ( patience to remove the “organs” slowly without injuring the patient )
Why is it on a soft toy? Looks less harmful to kids.
Learning hand and eye coordination ( for kids/teens who dreams to be a surgeon )

Yes, obviously it’s not that gruesome.

It’s for kids and we want to make it kids friendly. Sadly this piglet has to go through pain and suffering.

Materials needed to start:
Paper, scotch tape, scissors, sewing kit, aluminum foil, glue, paper clips, soft toy, tweezer, paper organs, lamp, and Makey Makey kit.

Also, a benefit for your kids to learn this software, Scratch. Software that will be taught in school these days.

Sounds to make it “realistic”

Behind the scene. To operate and take out the negative things in the piglet, which in that case were cigarettes.

Operation success !!!
