Snap Circuits Jr

Plenty of toys have flashing lights, moving parts, and sounds, but imagine how much more kids will learn by building the circuits that activate these effects, rather than just pushing a button on an ordinary toy. Snap Circuits Jr. ($21) makes it safe and easy for kids to learn about electrical currents and circuits. All the wires are contained within plastic modules that snap together to build 101 fun and interesting projects including a voice controlled lamp, light police siren, musical doorbell, and even a flying saucer!
