CRICKIT Exhibit Demo Board
A playground of inputs and outputs, this board demonstrates all the functions possible with CRICKIT for Circuit Playground Express. It is easily customizable using CircuitPython.
Micro:bit Radio Control of Crickit Robotics
The Bluetooth LE radio in the BBC micro:bit is easy to use with MakeCode blocks. This project shows one micro:bit acting as a radio transmitter, commanding a remote micro:bit and Adafruit Crickit robotics add-on to control a motor and lights.
Crickit Dancing Marionette Kit
This project demonstrates how to create a robotically-controlled marionette made out of household recyclable materials, controlled by CRICKIT for CPX, and shows how to use CircuitPython to control inputs and outputs.
Make It Pulse
The light sensor on the Circuit Playground Express is used as a pulse sensor, albeit one with limited accuracy. The output can be plotted in Circuit Python and the Mu editor or MakeCode for Windows 10.
Robotic Xylophone with Adafruit Grand Central
This robotic musician uses eight tiny solenoids to tap out melodies on a toy xylophone. The Adafruit Grand Central M4 controls the solenoids using Circuit Python, a quickly growing and easy to use programming language.

Every Wednesday at 7:30 pm, join Ladyada as folks around the world show their work on the Adafruit Show and Tell broadcast.
Lucky Cat with Circuit Playground Express
We've all seen Lucky Cat in shops, and who wouldn't want their own Lucky Cat at home? Using a few parts and the Adafruit Circuit Playground Express, you can have your own Lucky Cat greeting your friends and family.
Glue Stick Light Pipe Sculpture
Use glue sticks, Circuit Playground Express, and a handful of everyday materials to create your own illuminated art. This project uses MakeCode to conduct light shows with the NeoPixel strip, and is easy to adapt and experiment with.
Music Box with Dancing Adabot
Build your own music box that detects when it has been opened, revealing a character that dances to music. Made using Crickit for Circuit Playground Express, controlling a speaker and motor to bring movement and music to this DIY project.
Grand Central Soundboard in Ten Minutes
Here is a fun demonstration of the Adafruit Grand Central which takes a keypad and powered speakers and makes a cute train soundboard in 10 minutes. With CircuitPython, drag and drop the files needed onto the flash drive and go.
Meeting Time Keeper Stick
This handheld device helps people keep concise and on-topic during meetings. A Circuit Playground Express alerts the person holding it when their time is beginning to run down, and resets itself automatically when it is passed to a new person.
Illuminated City Skyline with MakeCode
Famous skylines lit by a neopixel strip. Uses Circuit Playground Express and MakeCode to create a beautiful illuminated scene that responds to environmental conditions around it.
Motion Controlled Matrix Bed Clock
This project shows the creation of a digital clock using RGB LED matrix. But that is just the beginning. Once you get it going, you can use all Python libraries available to display anything that matters to you. Using the 3D file provided, print a frame to house the LED Matrix, a Raspberry Pi Zero W and light sensor.
NeoTrellis Light Painting
For the creative maker or a young one looking for some simple NeoTrellis fun. Press the buttons and select from 13 different colors to light the 32 pixel matrix. Download a short CircuitPython script to your NeoTrellis M4 to start the fun.
