Just looking through the forum and came across this. John from Roaming Robots came alomg to a computer club for autistic kids and did one of the ant weight sessions.

Went down an absolute storm. Some of the kids who are normally very difficult to engage in any way got very interested in this and very excited about it.

For some of the kids who are particularly noise sensitive and cant really go to the live events it was great. (We have one in particular who is robot wars mad but has to watch even the tv show with the sound down).

This type of stuff really is appreciated and the impact lasts a lot longer than you would expect.

Anyway, keep it up.
