Also for those looking to move beyond snap circuits. DS and Grandpa are working through spark fun inventors kit. It's not totally maker type stuff, a little more structure I think. DS 8 loves it because it's "real" electronics. Snap circuits is apparently now too jr for him
the catch with it, is that it is real and so can be frustrating if you miss a pin or something. So an awesome lesson in persistence and checking your work, like finding the errors in coding. Unfortunately, sometimes this means DS wanders away while Grandpa searches for the error!!
