Advise - Building a flashing puck

Greetings - writing this for my son (13) as he is uncomfortable, hoping this will be a positive encounter for him!
He is in need of some help/ideas on building a small flashing puck that he is working on for a school technology assignment.
Approx 30mm dia.
Micro controller - Trinket Mo? Or ADAFruit trinket
Sensor - Accelerometer
Flashing Led
Battery
Would love some advise before purchase any further products.
Apologise if I am in the incorrect category
