Designed primarily for children aged six and up, Makerbloks can teach anyone about electronic circuits and components. Each colour-coded block represents a type of component and has magnetic contacts that will only pair with compatible blocks. There's an interactive digital comic-book guide that turns circuit-building into a game, with Bluetooth syncing to trigger rewards when tasks are completed. Makerbloks are available in kit form and the company plans to take them into schools to promote science learning.
