About this deal

The connector parts are numbered for ease of use and there are many parts such as lightbulbs, speaker, finger sensor, buzzer, switch, LED lights… the list goes on to the extent that once you get the hang of it you can come up with your own creations.

Certainly not listening to pre-recorded lessons explaining fronted adverbials to my nine-year-old, or split diagraphs to my six-year-old. The snap-on components are colour coded and numbered so they are easily matched to the diagram in the booklet.

If you have a little chemist at home who wants to turn your kitchen into a lab, here’s a list of basics to get them going. It will give children the basic tools to understand how circuits and electricity work in simple form, giving them the confidence to move up to using printed circuit boards and the delicate components to build a real circuit board.It is easy to compile and on the first day, she even had a go at putting the radio one together and then decided to compile her own combination of traffic light and radio together. This really is good to get children thinking, learning and experimenting with electrics in a safe and educational way. Once the items have been dispatched through our service provider your item will take 1-2 working days to arrive. My eldest son who is now studying A level physics even used it recently when learning about capacitors and he says it was also useful to him when studying GCSEs!

The Hot Wires kit states that it is suitable for children 8+ but our six-year-old daughter Ella has been perfectly capable of putting together experiments 1-15 so far and judging by her enthusiasm she’ll be building the logic circuits (experiments 96-100) in no time. Type of Products: John Adams Toys produces a wide variety of toys for children, including board games, puzzles, outdoor games, and creative arts and crafts sets.

With the box laid out as it is, you can see that all the components are there so when packing away you can easily make sure that you haven’t left anything out. But for teaching children the principles of electricity and building circuits, it’s fantastic and would keep them entertained for hours. The Hot Wires set allows you to create circuits such as a lie detector, burglar alarm, spinning disk and plenty more.The youngest member in the house (age 8) has even made her own designs, blowing a fuse along the way but creating some interesting and working designs! OK, so this isn’t a toy but Whizz Pop Bang inspires our kids to try out more science experiments than any chemistry set we’ve ever bought! Instead of looking at specific developmental areas that children might need help with, look at their interests and how those interests can be incorporated into the toy.

If you want to help further your children’s education at home that goes beyond phonics, reading and maths then Hot Wires is the perfect set to encourage their scientific learning.

With it having been my birthday the day before they couldn’t believe it when they pressed the finished doorbell, and the tune was that of ‘Happy Birthday’ which none of us were expecting and it was a pleasant surprise.The kit contains everything you need to make over 100 experiments along with a full colour instruction booklet that sets out each one clearly. But to be honest I could see how he wasn’t enthused, because the online lessons on building simple circuits seemed so abstract. So when we were asked to try out the Hot Wires Electronics Set from John Adams we were delighted to give it a go.
