Frequently Asked Questions

At Home Users

What age ranges is the Smart Doorbell Kit recommended for?

The Smart Doorbell Kit can be completed comfortably by students in 4th - 12th grades! Additionally, there are different levels of varying difficulty to keep more advanced students engaged.

What will I learn after completing the Smart Doorbell Kit?

Students will learn the basic commands of Python (including iteration, variables, conditionals, operators, data types, and libraries). Additionally, they’ll gain exposure to basic concepts in electronics and how they can use code to bring a real product to life!

How long does the kit take to complete?

The kit can take between 4-15 hours depending on whether students attempt different challenge levels!

What can I do with the Smart Doorbell Kit once it is built?

Students can program the Smart Doorbell to turn ON a light and send text messages and emails when someone presses the button (You can also add your own creative touch through a variety of levels!)

You'll also have the opportunity to hang the doorbell on your door and show it off to anyone who comes over!

Schools and Teachers

What classes is the Smart Doorbell Kit best for?

To keep it concise, we’ve worked with AP Computer Science Principles, Exploring Computer Science, Middle School STEM programs, Gifted and Talented elementary programs, After Schools Programs, and Summer Camps!

Scroll down to see information about how to integrate with each of these programs!

Are kits reusable over various years?

Yes! You can reuse the purchased kits across different periods and class years. Additionally, we do have a 5 year warranty on our kits!

How many kits do I need for my class?

If your budget allows, the best experience is for each student to have access to their own kit and take it home as a trophy to show their parents once it’s completed!

However, we have had success with students working in pairs and sharing a single kit! It also improves their communication and collaborative problem solving skills!

How  many hours of curriculum time does the Smart Doorbell Kit cover?

The Smart Doorbell Kit takes up approximately 8-15 hours of curriculum time to complete (Including exercises, presentations, and JuiceMind quizzes).

As a teacher, how can I administer the Smart Doorbell Kit to my classroom?

A JuiceMind teacher account contains lessons that are broken down into units with presentations, check-off exercises, as well as integrated JuiceMind quizzes.

Additionally, teacher accounts have an integrated LMS system that allows teachers to assign a grade to their students!

Do I need to know how to code in order to use the Smart Doorbell Kit with my class?

Nope! Coding experience is not a prerequisite! As long as you can go through and understand the kit before administering it to your students, you should be good to go!

If I don’t want to teach and use the doorbell with my entire class. Can students work independently in their own time?

Yes! When signing up for the tutorials, students can select to work alone rather than join a class, in order to build the doorbell at their own pace.

Can I use the kit for after school clubs or summer camps?

Yes! Some popular after school programs that we’ve worked with include Girls Who Code and Hack Clubs. Additionally, some summer programs that we’ve worked with include CodeNinjas and UCSD’s summer camp!

Scroll down to see information about how to integrate with each of the above!

Can I use the Smart Doorbell kit with homeschooled students?

Yes, we’ve previously worked with hundreds of homeschooling parents across the US.

Featured Reviews

My Intro to Computer Science students loved the Smart Doorbell!

 Used the Smart Doorbell Kit for my Intro to Computer Science class and my students loved it!  I believe that the Smart Doorbell Kit does a really good job at creating that first spark of excitement about coding by showing students how relevant and abundantly it can be applied in the real world! My students were most excited from learning how to send text messages and emails with code, how to turn on the light using the button, and putting everything together (They said it felt really similar to LEGOs) Thanks JuiceMind!!

Awesome product to learn coding!

 Bought the Smart Doorbell Kit for my 12 year old son. I wanted him to explore coding in a fun way and the kit accomplished that really well! The tutorials were super easy to follow and there were various coding challenges that we thought were super cool. We hung the doorbell on our front door and everyone in the family gets messages when someone is here! Looking forward to more products!

High quality tutorials and learning platform!

 My son had a great time learning how to code this and put it together, and the customer service was very responsive and helpful when we had an issue with the microcontroller. I like how the instructions had very detailed steps to help him to learn why the code works the way it does. After using the microcontroller and the breadboard for the first time with this, my son is now really interested in learning Arduino.

We loved the Ping Pong Launcher!

 My son, a LEGO enthusiast, found the Ping Pong Launcher to be a really exciting transition into the coding coding world while retaining the hands-on building excitement he loved from LEGOs! He said the tutorials were straightforward, and we were both impressed to build something of this caliber in roughly 8 hours. The Launcher actually fires the Ping Pong ball 20 feet!

A game changer for coding classes!

 As a middle school teacher, I'm constantly on the lookout for interactive tools to engage my students, so I was super excited when I first heard about JuiceMind and the Ping Pong Launcher! My students loved going through the kit and the simplicity of learning platform gave me a lot of confidence with administering it to my class!
We completed various recommended class activities including target practice, where you have to write code to launch the ball into a cup (my favorite one since it combines coding and physics!) Thank you JuiceMind! My students loved this!
