EV3 Lego Mindstorm

Just wondering – any of my meh friends outgrown their EV3 sets?

My wonderful husband volunteered to be a mentor of the robotics club at my children’s school. Then, he took a 9-5 job. So guess what schmuck has ended up being the mentor of the robotics club???

There have been 2 meetings already, and there are over 30 kids in the club. Our not-for-profit, skin and bones school, has purchased 2 EV3 home editions. That is 15 kids per robot. Shaking my head.

I am going to steal co-opt my son’s robot, so then there are 3 in the class. To make it even more difficult, they have now asked me to run the grades 5-8 program, so that the k-4 kids can have a separate club. That means I am back to 1 robot. Oh yeah – one of these kits costs $350.

So, I ask you, my friends of meh – do you have a spare EV3 roaming around? I know it is a shot in the dark, but you never know what is sitting out there covered in dust. They are a 501-3c, I probably could even get you a receipt for taxes, but I haven’t asked them yet.
