The release of the Harry Potter Kano coding kit 

The creative challenge was to teach the fundamentals of coding and introduce the basic concepts of real-world programming in simple, fun-to-do steps. The Harry Potter Kano Coding Kit does just that. This first-ever Harry Potter STEM product comes with a step-by-step coding manual that guides users through building the wireless- wand and teaches them about sensors and data all while they code. Once assembled, the wand can track your hand movement, making it easy to complete in-app coding challenges across six iconic Wizarding World settings.

The Harry Potter Kano Coding Kit quickly became one of Kano’s fastest pre-ordered kits of all time Apple also reached out to the brand to bring the interactive wand to apple.com and select Apple Stores with live demonstrations by staff, Microsoft will also be conducting live demonstrations at their flagship locations. The kit has been included in Amazon’s Top 100 list and Toy Insider’s Top Tech 12 list, garnering very positive reviews as one of the most recommended kits for the holiday season.
