Montessori Learning Toys - Electric Circuit Kit 1

This kit is made to go with the book Electric Circuits for Kids and contains all the equipment to fulfil the projects in the book. It can be used without the book and will allow children to build simple circuits and see how to construct a circuit. If used with the book it will fulfil the requirements for the projects and children will be able to build many different circuits and come to understand electric circuits and how they work.

Fantastic present for any curious kid. I like that there isn’t unnecessary packaging. My son has loved it for a few years (since 5) I’m buying again as a gift for someone else. Great simple introduction to circuits. Miffed by some of the negative reviews above.

A great introduction to the basic principles of electricity and electronics for younger kids - our six-year old had mastered the basic concepts within 30 minutes and was giving demonstrations to willing (and less so) audiences before lunch-time. It's great for kindling the spark of learning and the instruction sheet comes with some simple challenges to make it a bit more interesting.The only down-side is the price - there are similar kits available for less or biggert kits available for the same price and they're probably using near-identical components.At a tenner it's a reasonable way to test the water on whether a more complex kit (Hotwires or similar) is a worthwhile investment.

I bought this item to teach my son about electronic circuit. The product is very child friendly. My son was able to understand the closed and open circuit in a practical method. He himself experimented by connecting wires from the battery to the bulb , motor and buzzer. My son was very excited to see the bulb started to glow after connecting to the battery. He was able to understand + and - polarity. Only suggestion to the seller would be to add circuit diagram as an example - in how to connect a bulb , switch , motor and buzzer. Overall i am satisfied with the product and highly recommend this product. It's one of the best way to engage children in creativity rather than spending of IPAD's or mobile phone.

Bought in lockdown to teach my daughter about electric. Was absolutely fantastic to be able to demonstrate and I have put it away for the next generation. Wonderful.

Fab starter kit for electric circuit learning. There are 8 challenges to complete so as with any science project you will need to work out yourself how the different components will fit together. I found this fairly easy with all challenges complete in one evening. Certainly worth the money as my son continues to use it despite completing the challenges. Now looking to add to the kit.

Firstly, the little turbine was missing from our kit, so can only comment on the rest of the kit.My little boy (4) absolutely loves this, building different circuits and see what he can create. The light comes with a spare bulb and The buzzer is loud which he loves! I think for the price it would be good to have a few additional components, but these are easily bought elsewhere depending on the bits the child likes the most. The clips on the wires are fairly stiff though, so not ideal as a Montessori based toy as I had hoped as it means I end up having to clip the wires onto the bulb etc!

Bought this as a stocking filler for my cable mad four year old. He loves it! Said it was his favourite Xmas gift from Santa!
