Owen’s First Circuit Board

 

Owen received his first (snap) circuit board, and he loved it!  It was a really small one with only four pieces so he was able to actually do it himself.  He built……… a FAN!  (and a flying saucer)

Look at the excitement as it flies up!

He requested a second chair so he could sit while he worked…

Here are a few videos of him explaining how the circuit works.  He even knows he has to switch the polarity of the motor to turn it from a fan to a flying saucer.  It’s so fun to see him so engaged in something.

 

 

He REALLY wants the Snap Circuits Jr. board, so he is doing work around the house and minding his manners to earn it!  I think you’ll be seeing some more circuit experiments in another week or two if he stays motivated.
