5 out of 5 stars Great for the science minded child   October 2, 2008
A.B. (WI)
My son loves Snap Circuits. He just turned 6 and is quite capable of snapping the circuits together following the easily laid out colored diagrams. I love the big snaps. Everthing is very durable. We had a little issue with the slide switch which accidentally broke off-my fault. I called the company and they sent out another switch at no charge. I definitely would recommend this to anyone.


5 out of 5 stars Learning Electricity was a SNAP!   September 26, 2008
Misty Post (Humble, TX United States)
After reading numerous reviews in various homeschooling circles, I decided to see if the Snap Circuits Jr. set was as good as promised. It is! Even having gained a more than adequate understanding of the concept of electricity and the way it travels, that light bulb of understanding shown even brighter after working just the first project included in the set. And yes, the pun was intended. For those not realizing how this set works, the set includes a project booklet with easy-to-follow instructions, snap-on pieces of different shapes that provide the electrical path, and a plastic base of a grid with the counter-snaps for the pieces. The instructions were easy enough for my 7 year old to follow on her own with thought-provoking questions of the activities. We were so excited about the fun element to the set, we purchased other sets for children of close friends and family members. We love Snap Circuits Jr. and can't wait to purchase the larger sets for the next gift-giving occasion!

Mom S (Northern NJ)
Snap Circuits are the best. The small set makes a perfect gift for birthday parties as it is different from all the rest and parents love it. I am an engineer and find this toy educational. My son loves creating the circuits and making them work. In addition its very safe. An ingenius idea!


5 out of 5 stars my son's favorite toy   September 6, 2008
K. Kearns
I bought this for my son's 6 yr old birthday. He would play with this over video games. He loves this and he does it by himself. For christmas we are getting him more sets.


5 out of 5 stars Never knew this could be so much fun!   July 12, 2008

My son played with this at a children's learning museum once and has wanted one ever since. I was skeptical, but suggested it to his aunt for a birthday present. I am impressed at the huge variety of projects kids can do. He just opened it yesterday and he and his best friend have been playing with it for HOURS. Totally cool, very educational, encourages imagination and is just plain fun!!
