This lovely little kit from Thames & Kosmos is a nice alternative to 'snap-circuits' type learning kits. There's still no soldering, but there are proper wires and a bread-board-like workspace so the projects are a bit more realistic. This is a basic starter kit, a good companion to learning with an Arduino since it covers more of the essential analog/digital type basics which sometimes get skipped over when using microcontrollers. It's also great on its own! Thames & Kosmos kits are excellent quality so we hope this is the first of many kits we carry from them.
