WE'VE HEARD GOOD THINGS!

Piper gives you the building blocks, captures the fun and power behind Minecraft, and then adds a whole engaging in-game story mode on top of that to give kids a REASON to use the building blocks.

My 7 year old was building real physical circuits right out of the box, the same kind of circuits that I didn't see until I was in engineering school! Incredible. Head and shoulders above and several generations ahead anything else on the market right now.

My granddaughter learnt the pieces: motherboard, connectors, battery, screen. We talked about how computers worked (with the immense help of google for some terms and systems). That night, her face was glowing with excitement and pride. I was concerned that she would get bored as it is not a fancy colored machine, but it beat any app and game she had for two reasons: she MADE it, and she felt she UNDERSTOOD it.

PIPER IS TRULY AMAZING.

My 9 and 11 year old daughters could not wait to set it up. Once we had it running they dove right in without fear. They love the game so navigating was seamless to them. Piper may seem intimidating to adults but trust me, it is not intimidating to your kids. They will love it.

The Piper Computer Kit sparked] lots of creative and constructive conversations. EVEN THE QUIETEST [STUDENT] WAS ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING 

 As a teacher, it makes me happy to see all students – ELL, SpEd, and [general education] students – excited about learning and taking risks.

Piper Customer, Teacher - Los Angeles, CA

As an educator who is a Piper customer, I have observed kids attain the maker-mindset and start on the road to becoming creators of technology rather than simply learning passively… I am convinced that the success they experienced completing the exercises gave them the confidence they needed for such an undertaking. 

DOES PIPER INSTILL CONFIDENCE IN STUDENTS? IT DOES.

Great tool! My son has really started learning how to work on computers and develop 

A foundation for what could potentially be a career in his life.
