  • Constructive fun learning
Style: Green Energy
I actually purchased this for my girlfriend who saw that I bought a similar (same brand) product for my grandkids. She wanted to learn about physics and electronics, but not in a formal way. We construct the various “ experiments” much like we’re working together on a jigsaw puzzle. It’s great fun and educational as well. The kit is very well constructed and designed to make it easy to put each circuit together. Personally, I wish it had more in the way of scientific explanations for the functional components of integrated circuits. But, even so, it serves as a great introduction to how electronic circuits function, and after all, it’s main intent and purpose is for a curiously-minded child’s toy. ... show more

  • So Many Fun Projects
Style: Arcade
I bought this multi-project Snap Circuit kit on sale for my 6 year old Great Nephew who can read. He loves it. He started out building with some assistance and now can use it primarily on his own. He loves the projects that move and/or light up and some have sounds. Great to introduce hands-on logical deduction with scientific ramifications. This kit won't disappoint! ... show more

  • Snap Circuits for the Win
Style: Arcade
As a mechanical engineer, I am thoroughly enjoying this. I’m very happy I had an 8-yr-old to buy it “for” - hehe. He likes it a lot too, though. I love how many things you can do with so few pieces and the original packaging is easy to use for storage, too (from the mom perspective). Each item has a spot in the plastic insert. It took a fairly decent spill, so a couple of pieces are cracked, but they still work just fine! I wouldn’t recommend for kids much under the 7/8 yr old range because electricity is a fairly complicated topic and you can short pieces out if connected incorrectly and powered on. The instructions are well put together, and the concepts can be more deeply understood as they age. I love that they include so much basic concept knowledge (worded very well for the target audience) and encourage creativity outside of the instructions. This one will be around for a long time. ... show more

  • Solid build but wordy instructions
Style: Arcade
Product is great quality but the instructions are not good for kids. You have to build by referencing the photo and the explanations on the projects are very wordy and not straight to the point on what's being learned. This was fun for 30 minutes then my son lost interest as did I. 10yo

Bought for my granddaughter's 9th birthday. She loves it. Any gift that keeps a child's attention and that helps them learn new things is a plus. Recommended.

Instructions were easy to follow by my 10 year old son. He was learning about circuits in school so he really liked this as a gift.

  • Grandkids love this
Style: Snaptricity
My 9 and 11 year old grandsons love this kit, especially the helicopter thing. It’s doable for them but challenging, so it makes them think and do some trial and error and pay attention to detailed instructions. This is a fun gift for kids who like to experiment with tech stuff.
