| Hi,
I run camps using the original Lego Wedo. Some of our motors are beyond fixing
so I would like to find some to replace.As we begin to run concurrent camps,
we will also be buying Lego Wedo 2.0 sets.(probably 10 additional)
Here is my question:If I wanted to turn my original WeDo sets into Lego WeDo
2.0 (we have 10 full sets of the originals), what parts should I eliminate and
what parts should I buy to make them compare to the new Lego WeDo 2.0 sets that
we'll need to buy? That would include instructions too, I imagine.
Otherwise, where can I find original motors?

I'm not familiar with WeDo but here's a good starting point if looking
to replace the original motors from the first series. This search brings up all
of the WeDo components (including series 2), so you can pick and choose to look
up the components you're requiring https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page?q=wedo#T=S
As for knowing which parts to eliminate/replace to upgrade to WeDo 2.0, if you
don't happen to get an answer here, I'd reach out to LEGO Education https://education.lego.com/en-us/
They should be able to guide you in what the new updated parts are, and they
may also sell them directly on the main LEGO site.

Thanks for your suggestion! I have now written to them as well.
