About This Item
The Snap Circuits Jr. SC-100 is produced by Elenco Electronics and has earned recognition from some of the most respected names in education and parenting- including Purdue University's Engineering Gift Guide, the National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval, and placement on Dr. Toy's list of 100 Best Children's Products. The kit includes 28 snap modules, a plastic snap-grid, and a full-color project manual covering everything from basic on/off circuits to digital circuits, integrated circuits, fuses, and sound transformation. Because each project builds on the last, children develop real problem-solving skills naturally without feeling overwhelmed. Once they have mastered the included projects, the open-ended design encourages them to experiment and create their own original circuits. The Snap Circuits system is also expandable, meaning the kit your child starts with today can grow into something much more advanced as their skills develop. Two AA batteries are required and not included.
