More Gear for Back to School

Alligator Clips

Need more alligator clips?

If you need more alligator clips for your classroom, we have you covered! Buy a bundle of 7 clips to replace or replenish your stock!

USB - C Cable

Need USB-C?

Makey Makey always comes with a USB cable that connects to the USB-A port on your computer. That’s the flat, rectangular type of USB port that we all think of as USB and is on most Chromebooks, etc. If your computer, phone, or tablet doesn’t have a USB-A port but only has a USB-C port, we can help. You can use a USB-A to USB-C adaptor, of course, or you can grab one of our own USB-C cables! The cable is a 6-foot USB cable that is USB mini-B on one end (to attach to Makey Makey) to USB-C on the other end. 

Backpack Bundle

Makey Makey Backpacks are expansion boards we have designed to make using the back of the Makey Makey easy for everyone! Each backpack plugs into the headers on the back of the Makey Makey and breaks out all of those keys that rarely get used to Alligator friendly “gator bites”. Now anyone can use the back of the board and expand their invention toolbox.

Ever wanted to add a second player? Plug in this backpack to instantly double your game controls and double the fun! Enable player 2 with this gameriffic backpack and create custom game controllers along with friends.

What if you could make a mouse out of cheese? The Makey Mouse Backpack breaks out your mouse controls to “gator bites” so you can easily clip to fun items for unique drag-and-drop experiences.

Want to pump up your projects? Take your inventions to the MAX with the Makey Max Backpack. This backpack enables inventors to alligator clip to the 12 inputs on the back, making the full Makey Makey board accessible for all inventors. It’s the ultimate in extreme inventing!
