What makes Circuit Explorer different from other circuit building toys?
Circuit Explorer is a simple building set with built-in connections, but instead of creating flat circuits on a flat board, kids are building realistic-looking 3D toys that light up and move!
How does Circuit Explorer work?
Just follow the directional arrows to connect the pieces correctly, building the pieces and activating lights and motion. It’s simple, but also clearly introduces the basics of building circuits – Power On + Conductor + Power Off = Effect.
How does Circuit Explorer support STEM education?
Circuit Explorer addresses the “E” in STEM – engineering – by providing hands-on experience with closed circuitry. Assembling the parts in the right order kids quickly & easily create a circuit. Close the circuit by turning on the power and voila!
Do the pieces from each Circuit Explorer set work together?
Yes! Circuit Explorer is a construction system, so each set fully integrates with each of the other sets. Mix and match and build your collection to create all kinds of custom creations!
How many different things can kids build with Circuit Explorer?
Circuit Explorer sets are open-ended, so the more parts you have the more things you can build! You can build a simple flashlight out of two pieces or a 3-foot tall spaceship with pieces from all three sets. Sky’s the limit!

Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2020
The rover set is a bit more difficult as there are similar pieces, so if not careful, can be put together incorrectly. It is a great way for kids to problem solve as to why the circuits are not connecting as they should. We noticed that the instructions showed a piece with the wrong color, but the function is the same so it still came together. Again, it was a great opportunity to talk about the science behind these connections. My kids loved seeing the rover move!
There aren't just great toys, but a wonderful way to bring circuits to life!
Nos encanta, lo recomiendo mucho, ademas que fomenta la creatividad y la exploración tecnológica en los niños-
Super genial!!
This set even includes a charging station, which was a great way for the kids to see how a vehicle can be powered up electrically. The kids learned so much about making a circuit by learning how to match different parts of the set together.

It keep him very busy and he can also be very inventive and switch some of the part to build a new version of the rover.
It seems very robust and durable.
I will recommend it 💯 and will probably buy more sets from this company
