* Snap Circuits are available with upgrades, so you can add parts and projects as needed. The Mom recommends Snap Circuits 100, which can be upgraded to the 300, 500 and 750 sets if your child stays interested, and includes the Flying Saucer project.

TIPS:
• Label the numbers and letters on the baseplate with Sharpie to make assembly easier. Drawing lines on the grid is also helpful.
• Use colored pencil to circle or label the different layers of parts in your diagram before starting.
• Younger children may need help snapping the parts together.

PROJECT 1: Electric Light & Switch


OBJECTIVE: To show how electricity is turned "ON" or "OFF"
with a switch.


When you close the slide switch (Sl), current flows from the batteries
through the lamp and back to the battery through the switch. The closed
switch completes the circuit. In electronics this is called a closed circuit.
When the slide switch is opened, the current can no longer flow back to
the battery, so the lamp goes out. In electronics this is called an open
circuit.
