Got this for my kids (6 & 8) using the Creative Kids voucher. The product's packaging, messaging, marketing, design, video production quality, etc is all really well done and spot on to maximise how annoying kids can get even more annoying to their parents. The scaffolding on how to make each project even more annoying is great, too. Michael makes each project quite easy to follow with copying and pasting code from his site and then learning to edit it. Sure, you could order similar kids for less, but then you don't get the same feeling about supporting an up and coming entrepreneur from the region. Having every LED, wire and bit match everything in his videos also makes them easier for kids to follow. Only thing I'd recommend is finding a way for the instructions & code to work via a more drag and drop interface like http://s4a.cat/ which many kids are familiar with via minecraft (e.g., rpi, kano or education versions), hour of code, etc. Overall, still 5/5!
