We have a FIRST Lego League team – BrightonBots has not disappeared this year.  We start meeting next week – six 9-10 year old boys will descend upon our house every Wednesday after school until dinner time.

what was I thinking?!

Actually I’m looking forward to it.  I’ve started reading the material that comes with the Lego Mindstorm set, and for this year’s Robot Game and Challenge.  We’re getting a very late start, so are scaling back all competitive urges, but really?  Constructing robots and programming them will be a blast

I tried really hard to not make it a boys-only team this year – maybe I’ll have better luck next year.  Hannah’s team was always pretty mixed – which is rare but it worked really well.
