This is a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot attachment for accomplishing the FIRST LEGO League 2020 Replay Boccia mission . The attachment is designed for Gazon, LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot.. With this attachment we follow the line with the robot until we reach the team mission and we use the lever on the top to push the blue box. Then we follow the line to reach the Boccia mission, and three things happen: 1. align to the mission model with the front of the attachment, 2. turn the lever to release the green boxes and 3. move the lever to push on the mission model. This is a complex mission requiring a lot of coordination from the robot. Quite interesting I must say.
I was looking around the house and thought, "This will be fun for the kids—let’s build a coffee machine." Little did I know just how fun it would be!
Built from the LEGO SPIKE Core Set 45678 and the LEGO SPIKE Expansion Set 45680, this coffee machine has a lid that can be opened and closed, and it's the perfect size for the hands of a 6–10-year-old child.
What my daughters did with it was have coffee with their other toys. They had fun building it, and found it especially exciting that the lid could open and close. As an engineer, I also took the opportunity to tell them a bit about the valve on the machine and why it's needed.
Best ~2 hours of play for this week!
