Fun
My 10 year old has a ton of fun with these kits. They are perfect for him as he has adhd and likes to stay busy. These contain small parts though and should not be given to small children.

These circuits are serious
I looked through the book before I wrapped the present. As a mechanical engineer I had 30 class hours of circuit analysis, mostly DC. I could only get to the 3rd and they zoomed by my competency. I’m going to get it back if the grandson has lost interest and see if I can still learn new things at after 3 quarters of a century. Seems like a lot when I say it like that.

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.

Kids love it!
Purchased this as a Christmas gift for my two boys. They are ages 7 and 10. They both love this!! Especially my 10 year old. I struggle with gift ideas since he is getting older. This is a winner!! They will assemble them together or take turns. It is also a great family activity! Very happy!

Fantastic!!
I bought this for my 7.5 year old son for Christmas and we both love it. About two weeks in now and he has played with it almost every day and still gets excited about it. On top of all the fun, he is also learning which is always good.

STEM!
My Son is super into STEM, Robots and Electric items. He is working with these things in his classroom so I wanted to get him so items so he can expand his knowledge at home as well. This is a Christmas gift so he hasn't opened it yet but from what I saw, it looks to be super educational and fun! I actually accidently bought this without realizing I had already bought the Snap Circuits: My Home from Target, so he will have two kits, Snap Circuits: My Home and Snap Circuits: My Home plus.
