Disappointed as the package was clearly previously opened
Disappointed as the package was clearly previously opened. It appears pieces are there, but seems low quality on visual inspection. It is intended as a gift so have not tried it yet. Seems like it will be an expensive stocking stuffer.

So much fun!
This is a super fun way to learn about circuits and switches. It's one thing to know the principles, but a whole other thing to actually build a circuit out of real components, attach the battery and see your LED light up! I'm a grown up and I had a blast putting stuff together, seeing it work, seeing it not work and figuring out what I did wrong...I'm sure any young person would totally love this set.

but I would recommend as a present for any kid interested in electronics/science
I got this kit for my niece who just turned 13 and likes science experiments. I was little hesitant at first if this too techy for the novice user. She's only had it for a few days, but her mom said she's been having a blast messing around with it and made a nightlight for her room! Now her younger brother wants one too! He’ll have to wait until Xmas, but I would recommend as a present for any kid interested in electronics/science.
