Roland Brouillette: Excellent produit pédagogique.

MohammadMohammad: My son play this game for 4 hours straight

Why: Great buy, wish it had more usable projects.

Christian Castillo: Se nota que el producto lo hizo algún ingeniero, las prácticas con claras y se sillas de seguir, el tema es que las explicaciones no son tan claras, si requiere la supervisión y explicación de alguien con un poco de conocimientos.

Las piezas están geniales, el sistema de conexión es increíblemente sencillo y cómodo para los niños. Aunque hay que echarle un poco de cabeza al instructivo, al entenderle todo va muy bien.

Mi hijo de 8 años está muy contento, lo malo es que los instructivos vienen en inglés, de lo contrario el podría hacer las prácticas solo.

Robert J Warren: Great kit to introduce interested science students to electricity & electric circuit fundamentals.

Graeme Doyle: Bought as a birthday present for my 11yo Granddaughter she absolutely loves it and basically hasn't put it down since receiving it.

Australia on Jun 07, 2023

Ian: My 8 year old granddaughter had been doing "Electricity" at school building simple circuits and had loved it so this looked perfect for a Christmas present. It proved to be just that, she now uses the Snap Circuits on her own and runs in to show her mum and dad what she had done with great pride. She was also able to predict what would happen and to fault find when she had inserted a component in the wrong way round. An Excellent purchase.

Justbooking: If you're wondering what to buy your child this year that is not another toy or video game, consider Snap Circuits. Elementary schools in my area have introduced them as part of their STEM curriculum and they have been a hit with the students as they are able to create all sorts of projects, including alarms, fans, lamps, AM radio, doorbells, special sound and light effects, etc. I will compare it to Little Bits and Lego Mindstorm below.

There are materials and training out there to build more elaborate toys that could potentially get your child a Science Fair prize, but if you're looking for something affordable that doesn't require an advance degree, allows kids to have fun on their own and spend hours tinkering with, you'll soon find that the Snap Circuits 750 sets is the best investment. It is the one my child's school picked in the end for ease of use and because - let's face it - kids love it. A Top 10 Educational Toy award and a 5-star overall review speaks for itself.

Don't let the nondescript look and fancy name fool you - this is a high quality, five-star rated toy, voted one of the best of the year. You can buy smaller Snap Circuit sets with the individual...

user111: I got this today. I will first confess that I bought this for myself for my 40th birthday. I have ALWAYS wanted a big kit like this. I've always been interested in electronics and I thought it would be great to have something to toy around with that doesn't take a lot of work, just snap snap go.

The set comes with several components, and they have snaps on them, basically the same type of snap you have on clothing, and you just snap things together according to the diagrams. Included are several project books with various levels of projects in them. For example, book 1 had projects 1-100 or so. Being an adult, I spent the past 2 or 3 hours blasting through book 1. I probably built something like 15 projects out of the 100. There were a lot of projects that were somewhat repetitive and I really was not interested in snapping them all together, even though it is really fast and easy. And I'm always impatient. They give pretty detailed instructions, describing snapping things in stages as things stack vertically. I'm way to impatient for all that. I just snapped it together the way I wanted as long as I knew it was "the same thing". I think it is great that you can follow...
