What do you want to learn? What Ceph features are you interested in (RGW, CephFS, RBD)? The experience will greatly depend on the speed of the storage you plan to use. SBC with NVMe/SSD/SATA are preffered over SD card/eMMC. A 64 bit CPU is required for modern Ceph. Aarch64 should just work. A bunch of new Raspberry Pi's (8GB RAM) and a couple of USB3 connected disks should get you a fun cluster to play with. Gr.
