FM Radio

Our 10 year old son was bored at his grandma’s house this summer, so we sent him this kit. He had a great time putting it together. It didn’t take him very long to figure out what to do and once it was finished, he was showing everyone how it worked. The pieces are good quality (nothing broke when he had to take it apart to pack up his suitcase when it was time to come home. He was able to put it back together later and show us in person how it worked. And it does work! You can change the channel and find what you want to listen to. This can make some annoying noises (I can’t remember what my son did to it to make it make an awful noise) but if you have assembled correctly and find a station, it’s fine. It’s not very bulky and is easy to take apart and put back together. Our son had fun building this so we ended up getting him more circuit kits. These are great!

This is an amazing kit. It is easy to put together and it works . It’s also easy to take apart for the kids to do it again. The base on this kit is rather flimsy compared to the robust bases on the other kits. The Snap Circuit kits are a wonderful way to show electronics to kids and they can do them with the very simple and easy directions. As Grandparents we will be buying more of these kits.

This is an excellent circuit board set for an 8 year old. You have to accemble the pieces exactly as the picture shows, but radio works very well. Volume is plenty loud and your child will feel so accomplished "building" a radio on their own! Great value. Battery life is good.

Such a neat toy for kids interested in how things work. My sons really have enjoyed listening to their radio.

Both my girls enjoyed playing with this. It was educational and entertaining.
