Solder free circuit building

This "Snap Circuit Rover" requires no soldering and can be easily put together by the whole family. Pretty cool way to teach your kids about circuits without any of the messy solder blobs and other wiring accidents.

We use these at the school I attend for teaching elementary and middle school children about circuits. They love the things! Each board has a project book, and most want to skip directly to the advanced circuits. It makes me wish I had one of them when I was growing up!
