SparkFun Inventor's Kit - V3.2
Get Started with Programming and Hardware
The SparkFun Inventor’s Kit (SIK) is a great way to get started with programming and hardware interaction with the Arduino programming language. The SIK includes everything you need to complete 16 circuits/projects that will teach you how to read sensors, display information on an LCD, drive motors, and more.
- Provides full-color guidebook with step-by-step instructions, sample code, and troubleshooting tips for 16 projects
- Includes a new Simon Says circuit experiment with all the LEDs and tactile buttons needed
- Includes all components needed to get started
- Recommended for ages 10+ and grades 6+
- Does not require previous electronics, programming, or soldering experience

Recommend one kit for every two students.
LilyPad Design Kit
Get Started with e-Textiles, e-Crafting, and e-Sewing
The LilyPad Design Kit (LDK) is a great way to get started with e-textiles, e-sewing, and e-crafting. The LDK includes everything you need to complete 6 simple experiments that will teach you how to sew basic circuits, light LEDs, create interactive designs, and more.
- Specifically designed to to be easily sewn into clothing--they are even washable!
- Various input, output, power, and sensor boards are available
- Online tutorial contains step by step instructions of how to connect each circuit with the included parts
- Provides tips, tricks, and troubleshooting
- Recommended for beginners of any age that can can hold a needle
LilyPad is a wearable technology developed by Leah Buechley and cooperatively designed by Leah and SparkFun. A portion of this sale is given back to Dr. Leah Buechley for continued development and education of e-textiles.

SparkFun Digital Sandbox
Learning Platform for Hardware and Software
Think of this as the SparkFun Inventor’s Kit all in one board! The Digital Sandbox (DS) is a learning platform that engages both the software and hardware worlds. It’s powered by a microcontroller that can interact with real-world inputs – like light or temperature sensors – while simultaneously controlling LEDs, motors, and other outputs.
- Equipped with everything, on board, you will need to complete 13 experiments/projects
- Gives students the opportunity to control an LED, measure how loud things are, detect what the temperature is, and more
- Connects easily with your computer with a USB (included) for programming
- Provides online guide with step-by-step instructions and full sample code
- Enables students to program all the experiments with a simple graphical interface instead of writing code
- Does not require any soldering and is recommended for beginners ages 8 and up.
Note: There are three additional circuit experiments included in the DS Guide that will require the Digital Sandbox Add-On pack.
