PICO Cricket Resources
We have been working with PicoCrickets since May 2007. We use the Crickets in our summer camps for middle school students (see http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/ice-gt/474). We use the Crickets in workshops and summer camps with the girl scouts (see http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/ice-gt/201. And we use them with the YWCA Teen Girls in Technology Program at 3 local middle schools. We even lend them out to schools to try.
Here is a list of supplies you need for each activity
