It includes everything educators need to teach electronics, coding, and wearable technology — from conductive thread and servos to battery packs and storage.\n\nThe Circuit Playground Express supports three programming environments: Microsoft MakeCode (block-based and JavaScript), CircuitPython, and Arduino IDE. It's also compatible with Code.org's CS Discoveries curriculum. No soldering required — alligator clips connect directly to the board's pads.\n\nOn-Board Features\n\n\n10× Mini NeoPixels – Individually addressable RGB LEDs\n\nMotion Sensor – LIS3DH triple-axis accelerometer with tap and free-fall detection\n\nTemperature Sensor – Thermistor\n\nLight Sensor – Phototransistor (also works as colour and pulse sensor)\n\nSound Sensor – MEMS microphone\n\nMini Speaker – 7.5 mm magnetic speaker with class D amplifier\n\nIR Transceiver – Send/receive remote control codes and inter-board messages; doubles as proximity sensor\n\n2× Push Buttons – Labelled A and B\nSlide Switch & Reset Button\n\n8× Alligator-Clip I/O Pads – Analog input, PWM output, capacitive touch, I2C, and UART\n\nProcessor: ATSAMD21 ARM Cortex M0, 48 MHz, 3.3 V\n\nStorage: 2 MB SPI flash for CircuitPython code and libraries\n\nUSB: Micro-USB — acts as serial, keyboard, mouse, joystick, or MIDI\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\nBoards & Cables\n\n2× Circuit Playground Express\n2× USB cable (A to Micro-B)\n\n\nWearable Electronics\n\n1× Stainless thin conductive thread (2-ply, 23 m)\n1× Needle set (sizes 3–9, 20 needles)\n1× Sewable snaps (5 mm, card of 24)\n1× Magnetic pin back\n\n\nBreadboard & Paper-Craft\n\n1× Copper foil tape with conductive adhesive (6 mm × 15 m roll)\n1× Small alligator clip test lead set (18 pieces)\n1× Small alligator clip to male jumper wire bundle (6 pieces)\n\n\nLEDs & Motors\n\n2× Micro servo\n1× Flora RGB Smart NeoPixel v2 (pack of 4)\n1× LED sequins – multicolour (pack of 5)\n\n\nPower\n\n1× 3× AAA battery holder with on/off switch, JST, and belt clip\n3× Alkaline AAA batteries\n1× 3× AA battery holder with on/off switch, JST, and belt clip\n3× Alkaline AA batteries\n1× JST-PH battery extension cable (500 mm)\n\n\nStorage\n\n2× Mini storage box\n1× AdaBot lunchbox\n\n\nResources\n\nMicrosoft MakeCode editor\nCode.org CS Discoveries guide\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":14329,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-2769","price":234.18,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":1,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
