Micro:Bit is currently sold in a boring rectangular cardboard box. The sales are not high and BBC has approached you to think about creating an alternative way to package the micro:bit so that it would attract more parents or children to buy the micro:bit. You should consider loading some coding that would look go along with your alternative "package". For example, if you create a e-dog, your code should get the dog to bark, introduce itself to the child and perhaps to play a tune for the child. You should have to include sequence or series of steps, input or button A or shake, output or music, text or icon and iteration or loops.
You should have a decomposition plan to ensure your code would be suitable and materials required to create your prototype would be available.

Inspire to create one of your own. Sorry, you cannot take home the Microbit - only the pet you create can be taken home.
Make sure your Micro:Bit is programmed to introduce your animal. You can stand your Micro:Bit between the legs of your animals. A suitable tune will be fun!
