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.

Great balance of fun and challenge in each project!
The Snap Circuits LIGHT Electronics Exploration Kit has been a game-changer for my sons! With over 175 STEM projects, it provides a wide range of exciting activities. What I love most is the perfect balance it strikes between being easy to use for kids aged 8+ while still offering a challenge that keeps them engaged.As they complete projects, my sons experience a sense of accomplishment thatâs truly rewarding. This kit not only educates but also fosters a sense of pride in their abilities. Itâs a fantastic way to encourage STEM learning and creativity in young minds.

Fun and Educational Toy for Kids. Missing Parts.
I bought two of these for a weekend electronics play date. I bought them both new, and they were sealed from the manufacturer, but on opening them, one had all the parts loose in the box (all the parts were there, though) and the other one was neatly packaged, but missing all of the 3-snap wires which are important to every project. Looks like replacements are easy (and free) to request from the website. However I am super annoyed that I bought two kits, and both had packaging issues.The kids didn’t care about loose parts and were fine with sharing, and had a fun time building circuits. My daughter is 9 and her friend is 11. It seems like a good toy for kids in this age range. My daughter needed some supervision and help, although with a little experience she probably won’t need it anymore. There is a lot to read, and they were excited to get started and got annoyed with my reading, so I ended up skipping most of it and just got to building circuits from the diagrams. The parts really simplify circuit-building and the visual diagrams/instructions were excellent. This kit starts with some simple circuits that illuminate LED lights that are immediately easy to achieve, and then kinda goes up and down in complexity rather abruptly through the 100+ projects. We did about a dozen of them and the kids were eager to go off-script and experiment. The spinning propeller blades (my daughter called them drones) were especially fun. They had about an hour and a half of playing with circuits before they moved on to other toys. I did circuits with my daughter again the next night, including the sound parts that let you play music from your cellphone (tablet in our case) and we played with our kits for well over an hour, and she was still interested in it when I called it quits for bedtime.Overall, I think this was a lot of fun and I appreciate the educational aspects of this toy. I think we should have started with the basic kit, because I think this kit is meant to build on the knowledge and skills you learn in earlier kits and it didn’t seem like this kit explained basic electrical/electronic concepts. Hard to properly judge it since we didn’t read everything. I expect that we will continue to get lots of fun out of it as there are a ton more projects to do and my daughter seems happy to redo things she already knows. I also want to mention that I am impressed with the fiber-optic communication that this kit demonstrates with diodes, fiber optic cable, and a phototransistor. I intend to buy more Snap Circuits products — although I am worried about packaging problems with the maker, because it reads like I have already hit the lifetime limit of 3 free “replacement parts” per customer with the very first kit that was missing 3 parts. This will probably be a lesser problem as we get more kits and wind up with some redundancy.

11yo son absolutely loved this
My 11yo son has an interest in technology, and he absolutely loved this product. He spent hours playing with it. The pieces are clearly labeled and easy to use, but the complexity of the projects in the book are just challenging enough where he felt very accomplished when completing them. You will also need to purchase 4 AA batteries, as they are not included in the set.

Es un juguete que despierta las ganas de crear de los niños, tiene experimentos muy complejos y otros muy simples y aprenden un montón sobre el funcionamiento de la electricidad, lo recomiendo para todos esos pequeños que buscas crear, pues es un acercamiento seguro a los dispositivos eléctricos

I bought this for my nephew’s 7th birthday. Whilst the kit says 8+ the nephew is very ahead in this area academically and into science and engineering so I got him this (to use with some initial supervision). The build quality of the kit is superb, there are some really lovely touches (for example a flying spinner that’s part of the kit is glow in the dark). The projects in the booklet are well described and easy to assemble, and the building blocks are designed in a way that it makes it easy to assemble the projects. There are also some very well thought out and engaging explanations as to what is going on within the projects. My nephew loves it – a really great educational toy especially for Lego enthusiasts who like building things
