Discover the magic of electricity through hands-on projects designed to teach kids the basics, while having fun and building cool gadgets!
Ready to have the incredible world of electronics at your fingertips? Ward off intruders with an alarm that buzzes when someone opens your bedroom door, create a secret message machine to communicate with friends, and build your own playable musical instrument with funky digital sounds—all while learning the ins and outs of batteries, electric currents, breadboards, and more!
Throughout your electronics journey, you’ll:
Calculate resistance, voltage, and current values with Ohm’s law
Solder components to a circuit board to create permanent projects
Use transistors to create “smart” devices that react to touch
Decode 1s and 0s into words and images
Build circuits that help you make decisions, like a coin tosser that chooses heads or tails

Plus, project product lists are less expensive, with more readily available components and tools. Full-color illustrations, diagrams, and new high-quality photographs provide helpful context and keep you engaged throughout.
