Makey Makey is a small board that lets you clip everyday objects to a computer and treat them as keyboard inputs, so a bunch of bananas becomes a piano and a pencil drawing becomes a game controller. It pairs with Scratch and other drag-and-drop coding tools, making it a hands-on introduction to electronics and programming. Invented at MIT, built for curious kids and adults alike.
