Suggested Add-ons
This kit is also educational and teaches simple circuits through the wirings of your LEDs. Most of the parts can be re-purposed for other projects too, the battery holder & LEDs are awesome for cosplay or creating other glowing wearables.
About new battery holder - In order to better protect from younger makers from accidently ingesting small shiny batteries, we have secured the batteries behind a protective case that makes it so the batteries won't slip out and are harder to access for little hands. This new case might require you to slightly alter the build by extending the battery case down to the lower pegs to ensure a flush fit. Please do educate your little makers on proper safety when using and handling batteries.
Please Note: Small parts, choking hazard. Coloring is for all ages, but we recommend ages 8+ for the electronics, your child's skill levels may vary, we encourage parental supervision and participation!
SMT = Surface Mount Technology (they are really small)
RGB = Red / Green / Blue (cycles through colors)
