Combine engineering and design with simple circuitry and inspire young students to invent with a purpose.
Grades: 1-3
With the Group Kit from Squishy Circuits, it’s incredibly easy to integrate electronics, engineering, and design thinking into early education. Using a number of versatile components as well as dough from other Squishy Circuits kits, students can develop designs that illustrate how electricity flows through conductive materials. The Group Kit is intentionally designed to cater to group work, accommodating up to 30 students in a school, library, or makerspace environment. It contains over 100 pieces and empowers kids with the tools to truly illuminate their invention skills! If you’re looking for an engaging tool that will help kids build a STEAM foundation without overstimulating them, the Squishy Circuits Group Kit is definitely an option to consider!
Using homemade play dough combined with the kit’s components, tinkerers of all ages can easily and interactively create their own electrical circuits. There’s no need for wires, breadboards, soldering or any other intimidating tech as Squishy Circuits makes use of conductivity (thanks to large amounts of salt in its composition) and simple tools like LEDs to illustrate the concepts of circuitry! Not only does the Squishy Circuits dough enable light-up learning, the kit’s motors encourage kids to get creative and craft inventions that can move! Just add batteries and electricity will flow from the battery pack through the conductive dough and into your LED - giving life to a creatively inspired circuit in one of the most innovative ways of all-time!
