    • Very cool for Stem Projects
My 8 year old went to a stem camp and fell in love with snap circuits. They are nice and help them learn the basics of wiring and how electronics work. I bought this one that seems to have alot of projects in hopes to help her develop more interest and skills in this area. This is easy for her to use and understand. ... show more

    • Engaging !
Grandson is 10. He is sometimes distractible, even for a 10 yr. old. But he was captivated by this kit. The pieces are sturdy. The overall design and manufacturing is top notch. As advertised, there are multiple, multiple projects to do. It starts simple, allows for easy success. And builds in complexity quite nicely. There is a fine multiple-page descriptions of "light" though I really didn't delve into this much with him, since just succeeding with multiple projects seemed more important. A couple side things: the "super flying saucer" project really does send the little saucer HIGH. It bounced of a basement ceiling and got stuck over a duct. So, we had to retrieve that. Outside...quite impressive. In any case he was able to virtually do the whole "BIG project" by himself (which is actually fairly early in the set of projects). I was amazed. I gave 4 stars for "giftable" and "easy to assemble". Both because, it does take a little adult assistance in the early stages to help them think about how to put together a project...such as: what pieces will be on a lower tier than other parts? How to think about where to start? Sometimes, not a right or wrong answer, but having an adult invest a little time up front is likely helpful for the overall success. ... show more

    • Neat kit. Overview of features and Pro vs.Con
A gift for 10+ kids, but many age groups might enjoy this. If for a kid, you'll most likely need an adult to help, and some projects REQUIRE adult supervision. Basic function is that the circuits snap into each other using a plastic grid. Instructions include placement and the order in which the circuits should be added. This version centers on LEDs and music, and has different types of switches to activate the LEDs. To me, the key feature is a piece called the "color organ," which allows for hookup to a music-playing device (AUX cable IS included). Some experiments set up the LEDs to "follow" the music. The color organ has an IN and OUT jack. If you use only the IN jack with your music device then you'll need to connect the included speaker within the circuitry (instructions will guide you). The OUT jack can be used to hook the circuit up to a stereo system. If you want to play your music device through the IN and also Output to a stereo, you'll need your own [additional] AUX cable. The instruction manual is very detailed and is mostly written in layman's terms. It gives overviews of electricity, circuitry, and light. Some projects are based off preceding projects and only involve swapping out a few pieces, but still this counts toward the total 182 experiments. For those interested in the specs, check out the company website for manuals and parts lists. PROS -well-organized packaging -instructions explain the logic behind each experiment -parts seem durable -upgrade kits and spare parts available on Elenco website for fair prices. CONS -project instructions are single pictures of overhead views. Some could be more kid-friendly and broken up into step-by-step pics. -the plastic light tower does not stay in place very well -the speaker is low output and may sound grainy when hooked up to a music device. ... show more
