Due to the ease of construction, students are quickly rewarded
and if the circuit does not work first time, it is easy to rebuild it. For young
children, the brightly coloured parts makes it very easy to identify what goes
where. The manual uses both block diagrams and circuit symbols, so students soon
learn how to understand and interpret circuit diagrams.
