Snap Circuits“Arcade”, Electronics Exploration Kit, Stem Activities for Ages 8+, Full Color Project Manual (SCA-200)

Great STEM projects. Bought a month ago, on sale, to have for the summer for my 8 yr old grandson. Gave it to him today, June 26th. He absolutely loves it. Fun and easy enough for him to complete the projects. He's already "free styling" some projects. I will definitely be buying other Snap Circuit projects for him in the future. Highly recommend.

Fun for kids:I bought this for a birthday present for one of my kids and both of them enjoy it! The “programmable light fan” where you can put in your own message is super cool. Great fun and educational set, especially over summer break.

One of the best educational toys. Nice product quality and multiple projects to keep kids busy in a good way

I have fond memories of playing and experimenting with an electronics project kit as a kid. Out of the blue, my youngest son (7yrs) asked me about electronic circuits and these project kits. So after researching products here and elsewhere online, I decided to surprise him with this Snap Circuits project kit on his birthday.QUALITY and CONSTRUCTION:The kit consists of a number of electronic components embedded in “Snap Circuit” modules. Even though most of the connectors are solid bridges used to make connections between components, there are a few wire connectors. All the connectors and modules connect via a male/female snap.The base project board is made of plastic and is used to align the components when constructing the circuits.FUNCTIONALITY and IMPRESSIONSThe project manual is an excellent work book for learning about electronic components and circuits. My son loves to run through each project. I also love to work with him on these projects and feel that they explain the properties and functionality of each component and project at a level that he can understand.The Projects are interesting and build upon the previous to allow you child to understand basic concepts and to use them as “tools” to eventually create their own circuits bases on what they have learned.PROS:Quality components“Snap” method of connecting circuits is durable and forgiving with young children.Very detailed, yet easy to follow project book where each projects builds upon the previous.CONS:My son now wants me to buy him all the Snap Circuits Kits available.

Cool toy and good for learning.

My son saw one of these at a STEM night and fell in love with it. So, we got him one, and he has spent countless hours trying new things with it. It has so many different settings and is very durable. We have had it for about 6 months now, and he still uses it.

These are PERFECT for our little smarty pants! He loves to put things together and take them apart and figure out how things work. This set NEVER gets old. We started with just a regular snap circuit set and have added this to the mix and the possibilities are endless. Easy to follow instructions make this hours of fun!

I've bought these for nephews and other kids as gifts. They seem to enjoy playing with this. I appreciate that they are actually learning the basics of electricity in a safe, kid friendly environment.
