I had real fun with this kit. All the exercises/mini-projects were approachable and clear. We (my son and me) were experimenting with every exercise, with our own use cases and implementation, and sometimes with the ideas that we got from community comments on the website. It didn't last 12 days, because we were doing multiple days at once... it was addictive. BTW, it was shipped super fast... just to mention.

Great selection of items and clear instructions online to give an introduction to electronics. Very easy to follow.

My son made the stuff he could with the boxes that actually had contents. Two boxes were empty, but he never took the time to report the missing contents…so to me it was a disappointing calendar for only 10 boxes of advent.

Very pleased with the advent calendar. Was a lovely surprise to receive it so quickly considering it was on pre-order. The final product has become an interactive family night with all involved. Worth the money. Can't wait for this year's

Great kit . Bought this and the Let it Glow set to essentially create a 24 day calendar! The day by day reveal over Christmas added to the fun, but I agree with other comments that this kit could be used all year round. Straightforward to follow with a good introduction of fundamentals. Also some great components (so the kit was good value, particularly compared to other introductory kits I've seen). After building the 12 projects with my 11 year old, we spent some time over Christmas making various games out of the various components. Also worth saying that although we went through one calendar and then another, this didn't diminish it - if anything it was good reinforcement of the principles and then we had a lot more components to use by Christmas day!
