Just that day I was showing Arduino to my daughter - I know very little about hardware so we would be both learning if we went with the starter kit (that fact made her happy). Thanks for sharing this.

Sure! I ended up getting the official arduino starter kit and the Elagoo (?) kit Rober mentions in the class list. The Elagoo one is more versatile, but they complemented each other. A lot of learning, for us, came from finding the Elagoo and official projects and tutorials and completing them. There are many good guides and examples, but you may have to dig a bit on the Elagoo and official sites to find them. We had a lot of fun! It’s similar to legos, in a sense, with a little more thinking required and some cool interactive results.
