We what?

WeDo is a mini Lego robot - think of a baby Ev3 in pastel colour, which we can program and control via Scrath. Which is probably why we got one each for Christmas. First we were encouraged to "play" with Scratch, and then we were told, guess what? We can extend this to WeDo. Very sneaky, mama...

WeDo on its own is really fun! There are so many projects, and together with my little bro, we could come up with funny team-synchronized projects.

What's that?

Scrath is a freeware, created by the IT whizz kids of the MIT for kids like us (my little bro and I) to program our own animations (me), games (my little brother) and interactive stories... and if we want to, to share them with the various online communities around the world. Mama read this in her Mensa magazine couple of years back, and insisted we should give it a try. So here goes...

So who's or what's a Big Nose? That's my all time beloved "friend", a soft bundle of felt, about 12cm long, slightly lumpy dog, flappy ears, and a big nose. I am in the process to creating its avatar with Scrath.
