ABOUT: Minecraft Challenge: Find the Lost City of Hopper!
Interview the villagers for clues, find resources as night falls to build a shelter with your friends, find food to survive, build traps for zombies and creepers, follow the river to the small castle, make a plan to save a lost villager, and…discover the Lost City! We have the laptops running Minecraft.edu–just bring your creativity!
This Adventure Map Challenge is a mini-version of the building projects we lead our kids through to learn engineering, programming, and problem-solving through arts and storytelling. Our specially built Minecraft maps offer worlds in which to create and share stories, puzzles, traps, and mazes with friends. Screen time is learning time with MakerState Minecraft.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
