MADE Classroom: Circuit Bird - A Silly Flight Powered by Wires and Wonder

🔧🐦 Build Your Own Flappy Bird with Arduino!

Description

Why just play Flappy Bird on your phone when you can build it yourself with circuits and electricity? In this hands-on workshop, kids become inventors, wiring up an Arduino to bring a crazy bird to life. The bird will flap whenever you touch a sensor—sometimes it soars, sometimes it crashes spectacularly!

Expect lots of giggles, plenty of “oops” moments, and the thrill of making your very own electronics project flap-tastic.

What to Expect

• Learn the basics of circuits and Arduino programming
• Build a playable Flappy Bird game using sensors and wires
• Experiment, troubleshoot, and laugh along the way
• Take home new STEM skills (and bragging rights!)

Who’s It For?

Kids ages 8 to 13 who love games, tinkering, or making things with their hands. No prior experience required—just curiosity and a sense of play!

What to Bring

• Yourself and your creativity
• All materials are provided
