Suitable for ages 8+

A safe, snap-together introduction to electricity. With snap wires, batteries, LEDs, switches, motors, a buzzer, a speaker and light, sound and infrared sensors, children build working circuits without tools. The Level 2 Workbook covers 15 projects, including an electric lamp, doorbell, fan, motion detector and electric car. Children learn to identify the power, input and output parts of a circuit, explain why a circuit needs a complete loop, build working circuits and predict what happens when a part changes, and explain how everyday devices use electricity.

Key features:

• Snap-together parts, so no tools are needed

• 15 projects plus an Innovator’s Challenge based on everyday inventions

• Lessons on circuits, switches, conductors and insulators, and magnetism

• Safety guidelines built into the workbook

• Maths and science links, including telling time

Benefits: Makes electricity concrete and builds critical thinking and safe habits.
