Classroom card kit

Bare paint is the first non-toxic electrically conductive paint available to consumers today. This unique child-friendly material is designed for people of all ages to explore and learn about electronics with an inclusive, easy-to-use material.

'Bare conductive’s classroom card kit' provides a fun and engaging activity for teaching makers of all ages how electricity flows around circuits, and introducing them to circuit symbols and polarity using bare paint pens.

This kit will enable a group of 30 makers to individually customise a robot greeting card and create a ‘graphical circuit’ - when a flashing LED and battery are added the card comes to life and twinkles.

  • 10 x Bare paint pens
  • 30 x coloured card templates (with different robots)
  • 30 x flashing LEDs (red, green, blue)
  • 30 x 3V coin cell batteries
  • 1 x template CD
