ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Thank you to the team at No Starch Press for continuing to be a pleasure to work with and proving that remote teleworking across continents works! A big shout out and thanks to Les who not only checked and reviewed the program code but who also has always been there for programming advice, support, and inspiration. It was his insightful advice in response to the question How do I get into freelance work? that kick-started my journey with this book. Thanks also to Nigel Whitfield for the photography and images.

There are countless other inspiring hackers, makers, and people who have taken the time to listen to me, develop my understanding, and create opportunities. To them all, I offer a nod of appreciation.

Finally, thanks to Kay, the most inspirational person that I know.

INTRODUCTION

WELCOME TO RASPBERRY PI PROJECTS FOR KIDS, WHICH WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO HARNESS THE POWER OF THE RASPBERRY PI COMPUTER AND PYTHON CODE TO CREATE 12 AWESOME PROJECTS. YOU CAN THEN TAKE THE NEW SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES YOU LEARN HERE AND APPLY THEM TO YOUR OWN PROJECTS. THIS BOOK IS AIMED AT BEGINNERS TO USING THE RASPBERRY PI AND BUILDING HACKS, AS WELL AS AT THOSE MORE EXPERIENCED WHO MAY BE LOOKING FOR A LITTLE INSPIRATION FOR THEIR OWN NEXT GREAT BUILD.

WHAT IS THIS BOOK ALL ABOUT?

Over the years, Ive gained a lot of enjoyment from the Raspberry Pi, a small but versatile $35 computer. In my role as a computer science teacher at a large school, Ive been fortunate to witness firsthand the positive and life-changing impact of Raspberry Pibased learning. Using the Pi develops programming skills and hones thinking skills, building confidence along the way. The Pi is enormously successful as an educational tool, and the key to this success is that the Pi is fun!

Coding is no longer about just typing out line after line of instructions. Instead, you can learn to code by hacking Minecraft, making an MP3 music player, or building a spy cam. When using the Raspberry Pi, youre not just building and coding a distance sensor youre creating a friend- or enemy-tracker.

Its this combination of fun and learning, and the Pis versatility, that makes it such a great tool for education.

In my spare time, I research, tinker, and create many of my own Raspberry Pi projects, which I build and share on my website www.tecoed.co.uk. I wrote this book because I want to share my passion for making. Most important, I wanted to write a book that lets you develop relevant skills through exciting and useful hacks.

WHATS IN THE BOOK

In each chapter of this book, youll learn Python programming skills through building cool, inspiring, and useful hacks that can be deployed around your home. Each chapter is divided into simple step-by-step instructions, with plenty of diagrams to build the project. Ill also encourage you to test your skills by developing your hacks further on your own.

This book requires no previous Raspberry Pi coding or experience.

I hope that you have as much fun building the projects as I did when writing this book. Heres a quick breakdown of the content in each chapter:

This first chapter provides all the information required for you to get started with your Raspberry Pi. It covers setting up the hardware, installing the operating system, accessing your Pi from another computer, and other useful skills. If you already know your way around the Pi and the Python programming language, you can jump straight into one of the hacks.
