This is a fun and simple solderless breadboard kit. My kids followed the instructions for three projects online with ease (they are 10 and 12). The synth kit is a hit! Highly recommend!

I bought this for my grandson to assemble and he loves it! Took a little time to put it together, but it's nice to have a challenge sometimes. I'd recommend.

If your kid has advanced beyond building blocks motorized sets, this is the kit for them. It's not quite a smart system like an Arduino or a Raspberry Pi that use programming to control the construct, but it's using the same parts. This kit is still not a "smart" system in that it still requires the user to interface with it to produce any results, but now instead of using custom fitting parts and over simplified blocks. Your child will be constructing live circuits with the same prototyping components that professionals and serious hobbyist are using. The instructions are very easy to follow and the projects are very achievable.

The components included are real and very adaptable. The only addition I would suggest to this kit is a set of breadboard jumper wires ribbon cables. While the finished project might not look as nice as it does with the custom bent flush mount wires included, it is so much easier to put together and take apart. This becomes very important in the troubleshooting and experimentation phases.

This is the kind of toy you send to your niece or nephew to get back at your sibling for getting your kid a fire engine with real working siren. After the first hour of the kid messing with the pitch and modulation of the wailing and whooping, you'll want to get a sledge hammer to make it stop. Simple instructions and parts to make this into a Bluetooth speaker or a amplifier with an aux port would solve this dilemma.

Easy project, annoying result. Step up from Snap-Circuits
by UJD (4 out of 5 stars)

My 11 year old had no problem using this kit with no help. He did it while I was out one afternoon. I asked if he had found the Youtube video helpful and he said that he didn't even use it; that it was so easy and obvious what to do that he just put it together without the video. He said it took him about 45 minutes to do the first project, and he very proudly showed me the siren he had created. One issue with the project is that you end up with a little device that does nothing but make noise, that your child is very proud of. Hence, you get to hear the annoying noise over and over. Bring on the headaches! But it does help give a beginner practice with circuitry, and is a step up from Snap-Circuits.

Great tech tool makes learning easy

This synth board was cool. My 10 year old daughter, with some minimal support from dad, put it together in no time. This is not overly hard and is a very good way to get familiar with circuits and electricity.

Put it together perfectly and it didn't work. It was fun to take apart and do again even if we never got it fully working

Description headline says ages 10+, description and box in photo says 12+, actual product received says 13+. I guess I'll still give it to my 10-year-old niece since it's too late to get anything else. She is very bright.
