    Another bunch of fascinating projects! I love the communicating trees... But also the flashing LED picture frame, and the LED firework (I didn't though the effect was so realistic), and... I love them…

    I think I just made it. Automatic christmas bell ringers.

    if not, no worries! We had a great time doing this over Christmas and it's always good to get the kids involved in technology.

    I just wish I'd got videos of the kids reactions while holding a servo motor, and typing a command to make the motor move.  They nearly jumped out of their skins!
