  • Fun, creative and teaches kids how to create different things without a mess.

Great quality! Kids of all ages loved it! Even the adults had fun with it.

  • A great STEM gift
Size: 100 Projects
This will really engage your kiddos! MY grandson's STEM teacher told me how much he liked using this during class. I bought it for Christmas and saw how much he enjoyed making different projects. It's well-built and has a good variety of projects suitable for different interest levels. There are instructions for the different projects, and they are pretty easy for a child to read at the fourth grade level. ... show more

  • Great STEM Gift for 10 Year Old (& Dad & Older Sibling)
Size: 300 Projects
Even though these were not on the childs gift list, my husband knew that they would be a hit for a bright 10 year old. It turns out they were also a hit for his dad and older brother, and the three of them continue to build projects and have requested additional sets to add motin, etc. I think younger kids could also use it, probably even younger that 8 with help. We really liked the non-screen nature of this product, which actually teaches and instill a curiosity of how electricity and electric circuits work. This is a great STEM toy for a child who might not get as much of that in his day to day life. The pieces seem sturdy and well-constructed. It is great that there are a lot of projects that are included as suggestions, and open-ended by creating other things with imagination. However, some of the suggested "projects" are online, which doesn't make it as easy to review, and introduces distractions. ... show more

  • Fun toy and good quality
Size: 100 Projects
Super cool toy!! Easy for a young kid (6) to work but also great for older science loving kids (13 years). I was worried to buy it as the packaging graphics seemed dated, and it was a gift. But it arrived and was great quality with super stream lined instruction manual.

  • Great Concept, But Parts Were Too Fragile
Size: 500 Projects
Electronics Exploration Kit is a really impressive educational toy. The concept is fantastic — it offers tons of projects and is a wonderful hands-on way for kids to learn about electronics, circuits, and how components work together. The instructions were clear, and the variety of experiments makes it exciting and educational. That said, I was disappointed with the durability of the circuit pieces. The components felt quite fragile, and we experienced issues with parts not snapping securely or feeling like they could break easily with normal use. Since this is designed for kids, I was expecting something a bit sturdier. Because of concerns about the longevity of the pieces, I ultimately decided to return it. It’s a wonderful learning kit in theory, but I wish the components were made more durable to handle regular hands-on play. If durability improves, this would easily be a 5-star product. ... show more
