Unlock the Power of Electronics for Kids: Customer Insights

My kids love this book and it has pretty simple, but amazing projects in them!

We waited almost a month for the seller to get this to us. And, be warned, no tracking was made available. This book was shipped to me in amazing shape, better than I expected. It is pretty close to what I expected it to be, based on reviews I read. I was expecting a bunch of cool things to build that taught electricity and electronics--and it does. I was disappointed when the first experiment required us to go buy some more stuff that is hard to locate anywhere but online. I know it will be worth it to do so, but my daughter and I waited a REALLY LONG TIME to get this book from the seller, so we were already kind of impatient, and now I have to order other stuff before we get to use the book. If you have kids, you know you have a small window of time to capitalize on their excitement, and if you wait too long, they'll be on to something else.

My grandson and I like to tinker with electronics. We have several books that start out with the basics and then jump to "magic happens and here's the finished product" with all the intermediate steps left out. This book is a good step by step book with fun illustrations and helpful text. There are a lot of easy projects to keep your interest while you build knowledge. Worthwhile book!

Great book full of information and simple project ideas. We are using this as a spine for our electronics unit.

My 8-year-old son who is a self professed future engineer and techie cannot put this book down! Shortly after receiving this book after Christmas, he asked me to order basic electronics parts to put together some of the circuits described in this book, and has been working night and day putting together circuits, including a door alarm to ward off intruders into his bedroom.

This book seamlessly combines some basic science principles with practical application in a way that all inquisitive minds, young and old, will be able to appreciate. A great learning tool that does not involve the screen and will equip our youth with the knowledge, tools, and skills that they will need in the digital future!

My son asked for a circuit kit. We purchased one before and though nice, it was pricey for the things it provided. I decided to make my own kit using this book. I cannot say enough good things about this. I have not given it to my 12-year-old yet but he will love it. I read almost the whole book to purchase supplies for the experiments as part of his gift. The book makes the shopping list easy. Although other suppliers are listed as well, I went ahead and ordered everything through Jameco. I learned so much just by reading the chapters to purchase the supplies. Very well done. The book provides a stair-step approach to learning various aspects of electricity which I found perfect for a beginner. It was not overwhelming but I think it will be challenging enough to hold I interest. I love that the author said he wrote this book because he would have liked to have something like it as a child. It not only provides instructions but explains the rationale which I believe will be applicable to future endeavors.
