Do any of you have experienced good products for tinkering together with a 3 year old?
I thought about something like a giant breadboard with simple connectors to switch on a light or play a sound or something.
It doesn’t have to be too fancy, just sturdy and safe to play together with an adult.
Thanks!
I loved electronic snap circuits when I was 5-8 or so, so that’s definitely a good one if they still make them
My local children museum has something like this. Let me see if I can find a picture to give you an idea of the set up. It does look like it would be $$$ for set up. What’s your price point?
Cool, i’m definitely interested. If it’s something we’d supposedly both enjoy I could spend 200 or so.
Cool! I’m still looking for a picture. I’ll post when I find it but thinking about this more I know there are a ton of toys like this made. Most are for older kids and are priced at about $20-80.
Look up circuit station kids science and you should get an idea of the kits.
Here are some links I found:
My kids had Snap Circuits but it’s a bit complex for a toddler. It’s probably the most basic circuit designer I can think of though. They did a great job. If an adult is helping it would be fun for both.
Get them working on their mathematic skills, instead. You can give them a really good head start - mine could solve simple differential equations at age 11.
