my2boysteacher Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 My third grader would like to do some experiments with electricity. I know I could go out and buy motors, wires, batteries, etc, but I'd prefer to order a kit with materials and experiment directions included. Thanks!

abbeyej Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Snap Circuits are great. The Thames an Kosmos Electronics Workshop kit is really fantastic, but it's designed for kids 10+. I think a very interested younger child could do well with it with good parent support though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a very interested younger child could do well with it with good parent support though. I know of the Snap Circuits, but he'd like something more 'free form'. I'll check out the Kosmos kit. He could easily handle something geared for 10 and up, and we'd be standing by during all experiments. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
