Pro Version -Give your child a hands-on intro to electronics. Over 70 pieces snap together easily and include snap wires, slide switch, resistors, an FM radio module and a 7-segment LED display - no soldering required. Each piece is numbered and color-coded to make identification easy. These components combine to create working circuit boards like the ones found in radios, alarms, lie detectors and televisions. The project list includes all of the projects from the Snap Circuit SC-300 kit, plus an additional 200 projects. These include a music meter, an FM radio and a digital voice recorder.

The kit starts with a simple light and switch project that demonstrates how electricity is turned on and off with a switch, and progresses to putting together a music alarm, an adjustable light control and more. The Snap Circuits SC-500 has over 500 fun and exciting projects to build. There is even a recording IC included.

Once your child has mastered the techniques used in this kit, the Snap Circuit SC-500 can be upgraded to the Extreme version with purchase of an upgrade kit. This will take your childs kit, and fun, to a whole new level
