Intelligent Electronics Track

My kiddo got this for Xmas and by far is his favorite thing he got. He started off building the suggested things inside the book and then takes those a step further by adding or subtracting other parts to it to see what they do. He is a very big tinkerer and this just helps him tinker even more.

My nephew in 3rd grade loves it! At first he seemed bummed because a good amount of the projects are easy but he kept on trying them all. The he called me one day to tell me that he was able to hook up his mom۪s phone to it via bluetooth? Not sure what he means exactly but he was excited. This from a kid who loves technology and a good challenge, so to him it۪s probably more of a toy but it۪s better than another lego set.

This was a really good choice as a Christmas gift for my 7 year old son. It is very interesting and educational. He stays interested in it for hours.

Exciting Experiments With Electronics That Can Be Safely Performed by An 8-10 Year Old. Documentation Could Be ImprovedThis offers a "Paint by Numbers" approach to building electronic circuits with labeled plugs and color-coded wires and connections> A reasonable Instruction Booklet suited to the target age cohort is provided. But the only understanding of what the circuit does is provided by a short 1-2 paragraph "What's going On" section with an illustration.This kit certainly wet's the appetite of a young scientist in performing Electronic Experiments, but its utility could be improved for growing with the kit by providing, without additional cost, more complete explanations of the theoryof how the system operates and additional experiments that could be performed with the same parts, or additional parts purchased online.

My daughter and I enjoyed his very much. I bought to be a learning toy for homeschool and it is. We made the doorbell together first and it was easy and simple concepts that she could understand at 8 years old. Very fun!
