From the "Tools" menu select "Open system shell...". You should get a new terminal window stating the correct name of the pip command (usually pip or pip3). In the following I've assumed the command name is pip. Enter pip install <package name> (eg. pip install pygame) and press ENTER. You should see pip downloading and installing the package and printing a success message. Close the terminal (optional) Return to Thonny Reset the interpreter by selecting "Stop/Reset" from the "Run menu" (this is only required the first time you do the pip install) Start using the package https://github.com/thonny/thonny/wiki/InstallingPackages
