Do any of you have experienced good products for tinkering together with a 3 year old?
I thought about something like a giant breadboard with simple connectors to switch on a light or play a sound or something.
It doesn’t have to be too fancy, just sturdy and safe to play together with an adult.
Thanks!
Cool, i’m definitely interested. If it’s something we’d supposedly both enjoy I could spend 200 or so.
Cool! I’m still looking for a picture. I’ll post when I find it but thinking about this more I know there are a ton of toys like this made. Most are for older kids and are priced at about $20-80.
Look up circuit station kids science and you should get an idea of the kits.
Here are some links I found:

My kids had Snap Circuits but it’s a bit complex for a toddler. It’s probably the most basic circuit designer I can think of though. They did a great job. If an adult is helping it would be fun for both.
Yeah around three they should be able to do it with adult supervision but it’s still a bit of a toss up on if they are going to put the small parts in their mouth. I can’t find the a good photo of the big one at my local children museum. It’s going to drive me crazy. I’ll probably just have to take a picture next time I go in.
Snap Circuits looks great! Looking at the images she’s defintely too young for it but I will save that for later!
