Snap Circuits: Easy To Use Science Kits From Elenco
EduFunToys.com now offers the Snap Circuits line of electronic science kits. Made by Elenco, the Snap Circuits line offers kits ranging from 3 projects to 500 projects.
The Snap Circuits Jr. Kit contains just over 100 projects. By the time you finish the first two Snap Circuit projects, you might feel like saying goodbye to the electrician. While that may never be possible, the kit and projects will dramatically increase your knowledge of electricity. And you will have had a lot fun making them.
Unlike the old-style electronic kits, Snap Circuits does not contain flimsy pieces that have to be intricately wired together. The circuits, lights, motors, speakers, etc are in self-contained pieces that are compatible. The components snap to each other onto a base piece in Lego-like fashion. There are no wires to connect or solder. Each project can be assembled in very little time and you don't have to worry about making mistakes as they can easily be corrected.
It's Educational
Science kits such as Snap Circuits have many educational benefits. First, kids get the unique opportunity to learn about electronics. Second, these kits help build critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Third, they are great for intergenerational play. That's not just playing with mom and dad. Snap Circuits are a great way for kids and grandparents to connect with each other.
The folks at Elenco, Snap Circuits' manufacturer, are geniuses. Their goal is to educate and explain how electricity works. The first project in the 100 Project Kit is creating a simple light switch. The concept to learn is: Electricity is either on or off. The final project in the kit is a simple water alarm. The concept here is to show how water can conduct electricity. And don't fear the possibility of electrocution, because the set is powered by AA batteries.
The projects increase in complexity from project #1 to project #101. They are designed to teach the principles of circuitry, resistance and magnets. That makes this much more than a toy - it is a true science kit. The instructions are illustrated in full color.
Each project kit includes transistors, resistors, photo resistors, switches, LED diodes, speaker, integrated circuits, fans, and battery holds. Other kits in the Snap Circuit line include remote control vehicles, and small project kits.
It's Fun
Snap Circuits is a great example of how kids and parents can have fun with science kits. Kids can have fun at many different levels. First, the initial projects are easy to do and give kids a great sense of accomplishment. And secondly, kids take great pride and satisfaction in building the more complex kits.
The kits are designed to be put together by one or more people, so there is a very social aspect. The kits provide the right amount of trial and error to make them challenging. The end result of each project - a light, a flying saucer, recorded noise, etc. - makes them fun.
Snap Circuits can be found in an online store like EduFunToys.com or at retailers across the country. Snap Circuits are made by Elenco and are for ages 8 and up. They do require batteries.

Can the magnets in my Kindle cover affect electronic devices?
My Amazon Kindle cover uses magnets to snap closed. I have a small room with numerous electronic devices (LCD monitors, a laptop, an external hard drive, a cell phone, a watch); also, I like to carry both my Kindle and my laptop in my bookbag. What I'm wondering is, are these magnets in the Kindle cover strong enough to damage anything, or should I quit worrying about being careful? (Obviously, they do no harm to the Kindle itself....)
Your question is valid although I believe your concern is not. It's true magnets can effect digital storage and many other electronic devices. The strength of the magnet you describe is not enough to do any damage. Always best to check though.
