I bought this for a "Little Brother" (Big Brothers/Big Sisters), to give him a chance to learn about electronics. He is only 13, so building projects together is a must.
I used similar tools for serious product development many years ago. This uses the same basic technology for wiring together components, transistors, and integrated circuits, and has many projects from very simple to very complex. I believe it will provide my little bro many years of fun.
I recommend this for older teenagers with less supervision, or for younger teenagers with some supervision and joint effort. I think it is a little too challenging for must early teens by themselves (unless they are unusual).
Definitely worth the price. You should have seen his face when he opened it! You should have seen his face when the first project worked! And the second... :)
And, if you are looking for something to learn electronics with for yourself, this is the way to go. You can expand later by purchasing your own components to build even more complex circuits!
