Snap Circuits

Snap Circuits is a line of educational do-it-yourself electronics kits made by Elenco. They are designed for teaching kids electronic circuits.

Why It's Fantastic

 * 1) The components are durable and easy to assemble, unlike breadboards.
 * 2) Depending on the kit, you can build circuits similar with common simple electronics such as voice recorder, FM radio, night light, remote controlled car, etc.
 * 3) The LED snaps contain a resistor to protect if improperly powered (such as if connected directly to the battery).
 * 4) Most kits include instructions for over a hundred projects.
 * 5) Single project kits are also sold, however, they typically also include instructions for other projects using the included components, or you can create your own circuits using the included components.
