I hacked the wonderful children's book "Brown Bear, Brown Bear". I used conductive tape and wires from old telephone wire. I found the audio clips online and imported them into Scratch where I assigned the sounds to the number keys by using the "remap Makey Makey" function https://makeymakey.com/blogs/h....ow-to-instructions/r I originally envisioned using the book to share facts about how environment change (global warming) impacts various animal species. This project could also be used to create a multimedia book that reads to you and has sound effects. See the Scratch program here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/351428088
Quick video showcasing my new Makey Makey Slider creation! Great fun for kids to make and program with. All you need it some cardboard, a hot glue gun, and a Makey board!

Scratch 3.0 features a Makey Makey extension that allows you to program a game with a secret code. For our example game, we've included a physical puzzle solving element you need to figure out the secret code. Decipher the code, feed the bear, and then create your own game!

Tell some fruity jokes with the new #MakeyMakey extension in Scratch!
The Makey Makey Invention Literacy Workshop for Educators is a fun hands-on learning experience where you'll learn how to teach Invention Literacy, Making, and Design Thinking using the award winning Makey Makey invention kit. We explore how to teach circuits and conductivity using Makey Makeys and then put our skills to use designing inventions!
Participants learn best practices and gain access to a multimedia training website that can be used later when working with your students or training others.

Iโm going to show you one of the most enduring electronic prototyping boards of the past 10 years. Itโs not an Arduino or a Raspberry Pi. Itโs this โ the Makey Makey.
And it doesnโt get the respect it deserves. Itโs a no-code solution targeted toward students, but youโll see it pop up everywhere. Most recently, I found it being used in half a dozen of the custom made arcade games of Alt.CTRL GDC.
What it does is translate a broad range of input into computer keystrokes. Yes, you can use tinfoil or bananas to control a computer game, but also if youโre prototyping something like a kiosk, itโs also a super quick way to wire up simple button controls to a Raspberry Pi.
You can find the Makey Makey starter kit on Digi-Key, and you can find more maker tips like these on Maker Update, each week on the Digi-Key YouTube channel.
Turn everyday objects like bananas into touch-pads! Connect the world around you to your computer! Setup takes just seconds. Just plug, clip, and play! No programming knowledge needed. No software to install. Works with Mac and Windows.
