This handy little speaker with onboard analogue amplifier works great with micro:bit, and it's sewable and croc-clippable!
We use this little speaker in our MINI.MU kits, and it's an ideal way to add some sound to your micro:bit projects, no soldering required.
Just use croc. clips, or some conductive thread, to connect the three labelled pads on the speaker to the same pads on your micro:bit and you're good to go! Bleep! Bloop!

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- conductive thread
- Thread made with metal or other conductive fibres so it can carry electricity while being sewn into fabric. It matters for wearable and textile projects because it can replace wire, but it has more resistance than normal hookup wire.
- MicroPython
- A version of the Python programming language made to run on microcontrollers. It matters because it lets beginners write readable code to control LEDs, sensors, motors and displays without needing to start with lower-level languages.
