Hi Nichola, there are a couple of routes you could take. 1 – We do a bug in kit form – https://www.kitronik.co.uk/catalogsearch/result/?cat=0&q=vibrobug 2 – We have a Fizzbit module, that can be USB charged and allow you to build a vibrating robot that will jitter across a suitable surface – https://www.kitronik.co.uk/5201-fizzbit-module-create-your-own-vibrating-robot.html 3 – Or you could just get a vibrating motor and coincell battery plus holder; a – https://www.kitronik.co.uk/2541-minature-3v-vibrating-motor.html b – https://www.kitronik.co.uk/2145-coin-cell-power-board-kit.html c – https://www.kitronik.co.uk/2262-cr2032-3v-coin-cell-pack-of-5.html I hope this helps.
