Toys and Games Reviews of Electronic Lab 130-in-one ProjectCustomer Review: Worked for me, and now for him Summary: 5 Stars
I have a 9 year old son. I got this for him last Christmas. I only bought it because I remembered when I had something similar to it a long time ago. I remembered how much I learned from it about electricity, and how it got me into it. The look on my boy after a few hours playing with it was just the same as I had years ago. This toy is very enjoyable and educational at the same time. I have another boy (5years old), and he doesn't know how to play with it, but he has an intrest of the sounds it makes, and some of the projects you can have your voice broadcasted through a weak AM channel. My son took it to school to show and tell, and the teacher asked him if he can bring it again so they can work on some of the projects it has in it. All in all it is FUN 4 ALL ;)
Customer Review: Beep Beep Vaarrrrommmm rat-tat-tat-tat Summary: 5 Stars
Those are the noises my nephew, with some help from his father, was making with this kit after just a few minutes. We gave it to him for his 7th birthday and, though a bit young to go it alone at first, he is learning a lot and it is a great activity for him to enjoy with his parents, grandparents, etc. It's a great toy AND educational tool. He is at a stage where he wants to really figure out how things work and LOVES the kit and the oportunities for experimenting it offers. While I was driving home from his birthday party he called my cell phone to let me listen as he talked into it and his voice came out on the radio. It's a hit.
Customer Review: Opening a whole new world. Summary: 5 Stars
This set has been around for a while, because received one for Christmas when I was 11. I worked as a computer maintenance tech in the Air Force, and as an electronics repair tech for several years afterward, and now I design and build guitar amplifiers in my spare time. I can say it all began when I received this set.
Not only did I do every project in the manual, but the set allows for experimenting on your own, so I never grew bored of it. It's not for every kid, but for a kid like me, it was the best Christmas gift I ever received, and I think it has had an effect on my whole life since then.
Customer Review: Great product/gift for 7 year old Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this for my 7 year old son and he has really enjoyed the projects. However, I am concerned that it is not as educational/instructive as I would have liked. Furthermore, I'm even more concerned that due to the low-cost construction it may not last until next Christmas.
For any manufactures that read this, I would recommend including a 2D bar code for each project in the project book. Each 2D bar code would link to video instruction.
Customer Review: The right toys can make all the difference Summary: 5 Stars
Experimenter's kits are something of a dying breed. Electronics & hobbyists shops used to be almost everywhere it seemed, and carried educational kits like these. God, all the fun we had as kids playing with stuff like this. Every child should be exposed to these toys at as early of an age as possible imho. Helping a child get a head start on life, and sparking his or her imagination/desire to learn, is always a good thing.
