EUDAX School Physics Labs Basic Electricity Discovery Circuit and Magnetism Experiment kits for Kids Junior Senior High School Students Electromagnetism Elementary Electronics

This kit is awesome! My daughter loves learning about Circuits and Magnetism. We are computer systems administrators so this review is from a professional perspective. This is a step above snap! We dislike snap! This is great for kids and students where soldering is either too dangerous or time constraints are an issue. The pages are detailed, but a book on basic electronics that is AGE APPROPRIATE will be beneficial. You will learn to build series and parallel circuits immediately. There is some discussion of schematics, but just surface level. Again, lots of info for this in on the web. I love the crank and motors that are included, but i suggest using a colored disk (think pie wedges that are red, yellow, blue etc and trying different combinations and maybe getting a pinwheel to further show motors use). I love the switches and battery enclosures. While designed for middle and High School Students- this kit works with kids from ages 6+ if properly instructed. Double AA betteries will be the only thing you need to stock up on. I wish I had this kit growing up. I was soldering by age 10, but the ease of this may have helped me explore more difficult concepts like 3 way wiring earlier. Yes, you can do that with this kit.

I’m using this for homeschooling subject. And all the pieces look good. And the zippered bag is a great idea. But the instruction booklet which would be my teaching aid is sorely lacking. They want you to define things that they actually should be defining themselves. Now I’m gonna have to do a whole bunch of research on what the terms mean even the cover of the instruction book which has a spelling error. It was like it was written by a foreigner, who doesn’t even understand, electricity or magnetism. Disappointed because hopefully the components were well, but I’m still gonna have to fill in all the blanks about what we’re actually going to learn.

Half of the bulbs do not work well. One of the dual battery holder melted the batteries within seconds of connecting the circuit and thankfully scalded my fingers and not my students! Horrified. And strangely, although everything looks good and well, the circuit can’t seems to close - meaning the bulbs have problem lighting up. I don’t know if the cables are not of good quality or the connecting points are the Low quality ones. They look so good and yet. 😩

I bought 2 kits over 5 years ago and they have held up so well! I’ve used them in science classes ranging from ages 10 -16 for both an electricity intro and review. I like to set up stations for the students to work through in a small group. This is appropriate for both home or classroom use, individual or group work. Easy to follow instructions, while introducing and exploring difficult concepts. Great price! Would also make a great gift.

I bought this so I can demonstrate basic circuits to my 4 year old who loves light bulbs and wants to watch "how it's made" for every gadget he finds interesting. This set is so much better than snap circuits or the multikit I had when I was a kid for absolute basics. 1. He knows what a wire is, but a snap circuit wire trace is beyond his comprehension right now and would add complexity to building a simple circuit 2. The knife switches (spst and one spdt) don't have plastic covers so you can see the contact being made directly. That's important for a 4 year old who can't intuitively understand the inner workings of a simple switch yet. 3. The electric motor with no case is briiliant. You can see the commutator and tiny sparks where the "brushes" make contact. Absolutely no better way to show a kid how a motor works! 4. Snapping the battery cases together for parallel or series is brilliant for teaching without having a mess of wires! 5. An open battery case (with LED's) is perfect for teaching a kid battery polarity and how to install batteries the right way 6. The open nature of the bulb housing makes it so eay to point out how there are two contacts _without_ having to point out what an insulator is. I though it looked cheap but now I appreciate what a great design it is. Sure there are things I can't teach my 4 year old yet, but the basic parts of this set are brilliant teaching aids so they can understand the absolute basics we take for granted like what is happening inside a switch that has a cover over the actual mechanism (like all the snap circuit ones do)
