“As an elementary teacher of gifted students, I am constantly searching for a product that is fun, exciting, challenging and hands-on. The Snap Circuits Jr. Kit has it all! This is my favorite hands-on activity of all time! The students thrive on seeing how many things they can create. It allows them to take an abstract idea and turn it into a concrete working model. They always “moan” when I tell them it is clean up time! It is all done in a fun, simply organized, entertaining way that provides learning at a higher thinking level! I can’t say enough wonderful things about this product!”

Dear Friends,
We gave Snap Circuits, Jr., to our 9-year old daughter as a surprise. Man o’ man!! Once she figured out what was in the box, there was no stopping her! She has been working thru the experiments sitting on the floor in my home office, asking questions from time to time. I make sure she understands the idea behind each experiment, and then she moves on to the next one.
She is covering concepts that I didn’t get until high school, and because this is so well designed, easy to use and clear to understand, she is soaking this up like a sponge.
I am so impressed by this product. What a wonderful teaching tool! I shall definitely mention to the science teachers at our elementary school.
Sincerely,
Marie
To Elenco,
I am an instructor at a Middle School in Kansas. This is my 11th year in this school and one of the subjects we cover for our students is electronics. I have just purchased a kit of yours, Model SC-300 from a local retailer.
I love the idea of these kits. In my 10+ years of working with students, I have not had such an easy way of conveying basic electronic component knowledge into a working circuit for my students. We used to use solderless circuit boards, but the components and wires just do not last. Another advantage of these kits is that the components are still components that the students can handle individually. Many electronic trainers have been built, but they are hard to understand running the wires all over the place and tracing wires, etc. I see your kits as a great tool for my school to teach electronics. They seem to make the concepts of electronics easy to assemble and therefore easier to learn…

I purchased this gift for my son as a Christmas gift but found my daughter spent hours playing with this set. What joy! As a matter of fact, she is the one that kept making projects…
This is a wonderful thing for kids to learn about circuits and how the world around them works. Can’t say enough about how happy I am with the product.

I would also be interested in knowing how I could purchase smaller sets to use
in a classroom setting. My children attend a charter school that would be very
interested in incorporating circuitry into their science curriculum.
Thanks again for putting such a wonderful product on the market!
Hi.
We are really enjoying the snap-circuit kit my son (almost 7) got for Christmas this year. As a homeschooling mom, I really appreciate how much fun this kit makes teaching and learning. So far, the coolest project for him has been the lifting fan…
Thank you,
Leslie
Hello,
My son received an SC-300 Snap Circuit kit for Christmas…
My son (age 9) LOVES this kit. This had to have been his favorite gift by far. He has been having a great time building and then modifying projects over and over. I am heartily recommending your product to everyone I know!
Nancy
Thank you for making such a wonderful educational toy/learning tool.
My grandson received it for Christmas and I must say it is the FIRST and I repeat First time I have ever seen anything hold his interest (other than Chess) for more than 20 minutes. He absolutely loves it, he will be 8 in March and is already wondering if there are replacement parts (just in case) or if you have a catalog he could look at other than on the Internet. The price was also very reasonable because he has one hundred dollar toys that he never touches. And for a product to hold his attention like this kit does for only 59 dollars is a BARGAIN!!!
Thank You Once Again,
Pat
Good day. I wanted to let you know that I purchased your snap together circuit set for Christmas for my 11-year old nephew. I just got it yesterday. It is so very cool, if it wasn’t pre wrapped in cellophane, I know I would be trying it out first…I know that it will definitely get him well on his way to becoming an electrical engineer he dreams to some day be. A special thanks to all the people involved in making these great “toys” available today. We have come a long way from the old erector set… Happy Holidays.
To Whom It May Concern: We bought our grandson for Christmas the Electronic Snap Circuits Kit with over 500 experiments in the box. It is so much fun and a wonderful learning tool for our grandson. He is a special child with special needs, including mental retardation. He needs help, though 10 y/o, yet he was able to concentrate on this for much longer than he usually would on something. We built six projects at one setting yesterday. Quite a feat for this guy…
Sincerely,
Marilyn
