Today I went with the girls to Techniquest in Wrexham for a HE session. Engineering and programming with lego. The girls loved it and we all learnt plenty – motors & cogs, programming, and teamwork.

And the result? A roaring lion!
The video shows the first programming, where we made the lion stand up & roar before laying down again and snoring. Later we added in a motion sensor so we could throw the lion a bone to eat before it went to sleep.

The girls were really happy and excited when they saw what they had done – a definite sense of achievement.
