Summary: OUTSTANDING VALUE
Comment: I purchased 2 of these sets as birthday gifts; 1 for age 9 and 1 for age 12. Both loved it. The 9-year-old spent hours and hours building each experiment, while the 12-year-old selected projects that seemed most interesting to him. The instructions are clear and easy to follow and every project produced great results. They were so much fun, even the adults wanted to try them out. I highly recommend these sets.

Summary: Great Birthday Gift!
Comment: He was suspicious of this birthday gift at first and a little disappointed. He'd wanted (yet another) video game. But once he opened it and got started on the projects, he was thrilled. It was tops around here for quite a few weeks and remains a favorite.

Summary: John
Comment: I bought this product for my nephew to make a working radio for science class. It worked very well, I bought the larger kit because I hoped he would get into some other electronics things....he seems to be interested but has not put anything else together yet. This is a great project kit for young people.

Summary: Great educational and fun!
Comment: It amazes me so much can be made from one box of items. Fun for all ages. We homeschool and my 12 and 7 yr old have a blast. Our 70 yr old aunt and 60 yr old grandma had a blast at Christmas with this toy. Of course, our 7 yr old had to show them "how it was done." Wonderful. Bored, go make an alarm or laser.

Summary: More popular than Nintendo DS!
Comment: If your kids are "addicted" to video games, this might be close competition. My eight-year-old boy has created many "inventions" with this product, including a fan, an alarm, and playing "Happy Birthday" on the nearest radio (all in the first week of owning it). He says it rocks, is awesome and sweet. Is there more to say?
