Snap CircuitsBeginner, Electronics Exploration Kit, Stem Kit for Ages 5-9 (SCB-20)

My 8 year old loved this as a gift. It comes with fun, neat projects and is easy enough to do herself. The cost is great for the amount of playtime.

We had a lot of fun with this kit. I helped get things started, and my kindergartener took over and independently completed the last 19 of 21 projects. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. Everything worked perfectly. It took her probably about an hour and a half to finish. I'm not sure if she will use it often, but our younger kids will, and we are definitely buying more Snap Circuit kits! We also gifted this kit to other kindergarten friends only to receive rave reviews. Great value to spark an interest in STEM. Highly recommend!

Allows my 7 yo to do it all by herself which as a parent I tend to underestimate. For me it's a bit pricy but I consider it an investment into a great first impression with electronics. We do 1 experiment daily together with some programming also (Code Combat). And plan to attend a coding group when she turns 8.

Purchased this set for my 7-year-old. Really appreciate how easy it is for him to follow the pictures to assemble the different projects. What would give this product 5 stars and make me super impressed would be to have a booklet that explains the science behind what he is doing as he connects different parts. Something as simple as a QR code to different YouTube videos. I’ve found plenty online that work to explain to him what he’s doing. It just adds the reason “why” behind connecting up the electrical circuit.As stated, it’s a great product! With a little tweaking it could be an outstanding educational tool .

Got for my nephew’s 5th birthday. He’s super into figuring out how things work right now (ex taking a toaster apart) so he loved this. Sounds like he was able to follow directions on his own and went through all of the activities within a few days. Would love to see an expansion pack for this age group, as the next one up is a little too advanced for him (my mom has that one).

My grandson loved this! We went through the entire project book in one sitting!

This was a great, non-typical gift that kept the kids intrigued and excited.

My son loves this. We got for Christmas and he plays with them regularly - he is 9 for referencing.Ours was missing a piece, and the customer service for the brand is amazing to work with. They replaced it and sent extras too. It was a very seamless process, they have a request form you complete and they mail it right out! I highly recommend!
