Lego Mindstorms
If your looking for something for your library that might interest older kids and young adults you might look at Lego Mindstorms. It might be hard not to play with them constantly yourself. With the ability to program the robotics there's quite a few things you can do with them including tournaments or challenges. It's a good idea to do dry runs with staff to make sure the project is actually achievable in the time you lay out. Here's some pics from our dry run and the events quickly filled up with teams. You can also check out the AADL Library Lego League page for more information.
