The Sequel

CE for Big Babies is the next step in continuing education, and putting you and your kids in the good graces of the General AI that is sure to take over the world. The book picks up where the original CE for Babies left off. And, like the first book, it's way too short with six pages. It explores D-Latches, Shift Registers, Multiplexers, Decoders, and reading and writing from Addressable Memory.

Custom Switches and 5x the lights

Buttons are old and boring. You know what is new and exciting? Switches. Similar to the buttons in the first book, this book has nice large switches that kids can flip easily, have great tactile feedback, and are just fun!

You might have thought one LED was a good time. Just wait until you see all the learning that happens when we quintuple the light count!

The black book

I think it's really cool. I'm an engineer mechanical, so I'm interested in it. It may be a little advanced for my son who's two and a half years old. I have enjoyed the book. The only comment I would have is that the light sensors sometimes seem to have a sequence and if you open to the back page immediately it doesn't understand and all the lights go White. I'm wondering if you have to go start from the first page always? Or is that just amount of light issue, for example a dim light might cause it some problems

Excellent product with excellent customer service.

This was my second time purchasing books in this series and they have been a hit with all the tiny humans in my life! I even learned a few things with the newest edition! There were a few minor issues with my order but were easily resolved by the super responsive and understanding staff. Definity going to be keeping this on the short list of gifts for all the new parents in lives.

Great for kids

My daughter has a lot of fun playing around and trying to find the logic behind of how it works

Amazing!

Very nice but to difficult for me to understand. My boyfriend loves, me and the children doen't understand, yet.

Fun concept!

This is a really good "sequel" to Computer Engineering for Babies. The switches feel nice and the functionality & layout illustrates the concepts well. Just make sure you read it "in order" (some pages have a sequential dependency and the behavior can be odd if you start at the back page).

Here are a few suggestions that could make it even better:
1. Have the book behave more gracefully if it isn't first opened "in order". This probably just means having the state of all pages initialize to some sane (or random) values in case the book is first opened to the back page.
2. Add some way to select the "data" on the "memory write" page so that arbitrary values can be persisted (similar to the "shift register" page). The current "cycling" signal implementation makes the conceptual connection between the last two pages a bit harder to intuitively grasp since the only way to "freeze" values in the memory is to turn the page. This can cause the values from the memory write and read pages to differ depending on how fast you turn the page, breaking the conceptual link a bit. Not a huge deal but something to maybe consider for a future edition.
