    This tutorial is probably the easiest place to start:

    http://www.oomlout.com/oom.php/products/ardx/circ-03

     

    Also check out their relay tutorial which uses a relay, instead of a transistor, to control a motor.

     

    If the motors are simple 2-wire motors, then yes those will work with the tutorials I pointed to. If they have more wires, the tutorial Billabott pointed to will be the one to use.

     

    I've also used the little motors from power toothbrushes (crest spinbrush was one).

     

    Cheers,

    -Nico
