Alex got this super fun and educational toy – Snap Circuits SC-300 from Santa this past Christmas, and absolutely loves it. Although the manufacturer recommends this set for ages 8 and above, Alex is able to put together a lot of the basic projects by himself and the more complicated ones with help from us. He learns simple concepts such as the function of a resistor or what materials are good conductors. However, he’s mostly just having fun putting together the circuit and seeing the outcome of the project. We look forward to many more exciting projects in the days to come.
