He's taken at least 3 projects to school for "share" that he has built. I'd trade in 10 of my sons other toys for this one. Just get this toy. This toy is well built, fun and educational. He's 5 and in kindergarden and can now build a radio, fan thing, sound machine thing, all by himself. He's done maybe 30 projects overall. A must have for boys and girls alike. I wish all toys were as cool as this one.
I bought this for my creative and sometimes understimulated 9 year-old for his birthday. He played with it for about two weeks nonstop and when he was detained his older brother, who is 11, played with it. There were so many things for him to do, he almost couldn't decide what to do first. The pieces were easy to fit and the projects were complex enough to make him think but not too hard for him either.
Very nicely made, lots of activities with each set, great booklet. There is a very informative booklet.
These sets are unique: intriguing, fun, generally easy but with certain 'good' challenges. I have bought versions of Snap Circuits for both my kids.
Older kids can learn why the circuit of electricity works and doesn't work. If you buy the right set for the right age, kids can overcome the challenges and they love the sense of accomplishment.
Every activity on the board leads to a small but cool 'product,' like a disk that flies up or a fan that can be turned on and off. Even the littliest can get the idea that the circult must be connected properly to make electricity.
An all-around exceptional toy.
It's so much fun that you don't notice how very educational it is. I echo the chorus. This toy is great. (I'm learning as much as my children). Would not hesitate to buy it again.
We can't wait to show Snap Circuits to our Science Olympiad Team. The instructions are easy to follow.
At age 9, she loves science and wanted to know more about electricity and electronics. Bought this for my daughter for Christmas.
The kit and instructions are well-designed. She and my engineer husband have spent hours together building projects from this kit.
The projects start with simple circuits and move on to more complex builds. The parts included in the kit are sturdy and are a "snap" to use.
We highly recommend this toy.
