It's perfect for kids who are ready to take on more advanced projects and really get into the nitty-gritty of how circuits and electronics work. Kids get hands on with electronic components, learning what each one does as they build their own functioning speaker. And with our free online MAKE platform, they have access to a library of projects to keep them experimenting, playing, and learning! How does it work? 1. Use a soldering iron to attach the electronic components to the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). 2. Attach the exciter to the PCB with the soldering iron. 3. Add 9v battery and battery pack to the PCB and test, then solder in place. 4. Experiment with resonance by trying your brand new speaker out with lots of different materials! Will a balloon make a sound? What about an umbrella? A bicycle? 5. Continue experimenting and making with our online projects platform, MAKE! Kids learn: - How to solder - How electronics work - How to make a circuit - About polarity, resistance, and how electronic components work - How resonance works What can you do with it?
