User questions & answers

Question:	What does frustration free packaging mean
Answer:	this link describes their "frustration free packaging" http://www.amazon.com/b/?&node=5521637011&ref=spks_0_0_1883747602&qid=1447197646&pf_rd_p=1883747602&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_t=301&pf_rd_s=desktop-auto-sparkle&pf_rd_r=0AMG66EK04ETDPFX0WM3&pf_rd_i=frustration+free+packaging
Question:	Can the pieces be taken apart to build something new or can you only build just one project
Answer:	Yes, they snap together and can easily be taken apart (assuming they aren't excessively abused)
Question:	Does the SC-300 come with the red fan and motor that is shown in the 100 kit?? Thank you in advance
Answer:	yes! My two 8 year old grandboys, gravitated to this kit and both became competent with 24 hours. The experimented and created their own complex circuitry. They even 'invented' some unlikely ways to use the components. For example, the red fan blade became a helicopter blade that whirled off the motor and across the room. With a little organizational control and introduction from an organized adult, they followed the rules and quickly adapted to taking turns and encouraging each other. I was very surprised and pleased by the way they accepted the challenges and commanded the concept of using and controlling the flow of e- to do work.
Question:	Would a 9 year old girl like this
Answer:	My 9 year old daughter got the 40 project one for a birthday present and wasn't excited. Then on a rainy day she took it out and did all 40 and was so excited! Now she wants this set.

User questions & answers

Question:	Don't have and iPod or an MP3 player can you still have music
Answer:	I used my cell phone which is an android (blu brand) and it worked although the volume was really low. I think it would work better with an ipod or mp3 player meant to play music.
Question:	I do not have an ipod or an MP3 player but do have a samsung galaxy 4...would the mp3 light feature work with my phone? please let me know
Answer:	It came with an auxiliary cord so it should work from the music on your phone. My son said that when plugging that cord into your phone it produces the music through a speaker that came with it, but it is very quiet. However, it does make the lights flash to the music. He said that playing the music into the microphone allows you to hear the music better.
Question:	My son broke the flying disc, where would I purchase another? Do they sell replacement parts
Answer:	Some replacement parts are available on eBay, and you might also search the dollar stores. Try to see if your little scientist or you can make one using a round margarine container lid.
Question:	Which is better set, the light exploration kit or the arcade kit that sells for a little less on Amazon
Answer:	Hello- So much depends on interest. The Light is one of the top selling Snap Circuits but doesnt have the coding/programming component that Arcade has. Both are great kits.

User questions & answers

Question:	Which snap circuit is best for 5 years
Answer:	I would say all of them if you help them. They come with a book. You will need to show them help them, but they will pick it up if they are into it. They are very safe just snap together like a snap button. I bought my son lights snap circuits when he was 6. It’s was a hit. We then bought him kit after kit they were such a hit. He built real radios am/fm, lights sound, etc. He is now 9 and does electrical projects that a 40 yr old professional does. No joke. If your kid loves electrical go for it. The books are easy to follow. The parts r real electrical parts inside plastic snap pieces. They can see the resistor, transistors etc they r working with.
Question:	Would the snap circuits lights go well with this or is it too similar? I'm looking for a kit to go with this as a gift
Answer:	Yes. All the Snap circuits systems work together. They also stand alone. They are the perfect gift for the inventive mind! My granddaughter LOVES them!
Question:	Is this Discovery Kit a good start for 11 yr old girls who have had no exposure to how electricity works
Answer:	I think it would be great for an 11 year old even if she is not into science. You never know what will spark their imagination.
Question:	Do the snap cicuit set build on to each other
Answer:	They do...the connectors are the same in all sets.
