Ready to incorporate a carrot, your sunglasses, or great-grandma into your littleBits creations? The Makey-Makey Bit turns everyday conductive objects (like bananas) into triggers that control your circuit and even your computer. You can connect the Makey-Makey Bit to these objects using the included alligator clips.

How It Works

Make a touchpad out of ANYTHING by attaching alligator clips (4 are included!) to the Makey-Makey Bit. For example: you and a banana. When you touch the banana, you complete the connection, and the Makey-Makey Bit sends a signal to either your computer (move cursor left or right) or to your Bits (flash an LED or turn a motor). Scroll right to see the 3 interactions you can make!

TOUCH TO BIT - Trigger your Bits with any conductive object. Touch a banana to turn on an LED, splash water to move a servo motor, or turn a watermelon into a bass drum!

BIT TO COMPUTER- Use regular Bits, like sensors and triggers, to control the cursors on your computer Make a whimsical photo booth with your computer by using the sound trigger. Take pictures with a clap, sneeze--anything that makes sound.

TOUCH TO COMPUTER - Use any object that can hold electricity, like oranges, foil, or people, to control the cursors on your computer.
