Hey Product Hunters! Taj here from Fiftysix in Brisbane, Australia.
We just launched our new, flagship Fiftysix Tablet Kit last month - we like to think of it as the LEGO of the 21st Century. The Tablet runs Android and is as easy to build as a puzzle.
I've had a lot of questions about the name, basically our lucky number and name is Fiftysix, because in… See more

I like the thought to get kids interested of coding. Is this similar to Scratch Jr? I can't try, I'm on iOS 😄 Will you do an iOS version later?

Awesome stuff. This looks like a great platform for ongoing engagement throughout a young person's school life. Agree with @bigyahu's thoughts on customisations. Would be cool to 'qualify' for new components by completing coding challenges.
