I originally wanted to use this wheel with the BBC Micro:bit. I aimed for a PIR motion sensor to measure how many spins the wheel did in one go. Unfortunately the sensor range was too long. If anyone has any ideas please comment!

A cool spinning wheel to be used as you please. Here are some ideas:

Prize drawing - Different prizes can be assoiated with the six segments

Who goes first - Wheel is spun to decide which player goes first in a game

Wind sensor - Use outside to be able to see how windy it is from inside

Parents - Chore chart - Place your children's chores on each segment and let them spin it to see what they have to do. This is a fun way to get children involved with their chores.

I would recommend super glue for assembling the parts. If you're under 16 consult the help of an adult with this.
