Basic Electronics• Exposing kids to electronics at a young
age can help to interest them in STEM-related fields.
• Using kits that do not require soldering is a library-friendly way to help kids develop skills.
• Using “smart” kits to support learning at early stages helps kids to gain confidence and the willingness to take new risks and try new things.

E-Textiles• This field combines sewing and
electronics.
• It attracts girls to electronics, computer programming, and engineering.
• Sparkfun will be sponsoring Makerbox in July by providing us with E –Textile components for workshops and open makes.

Squishy Circuits• This project uses a non-toxic
playdoh-like substance to conduct electricity.
• The “dough” is made from a recipe of common household ingredients.
• This is a cheap, fun, and colorful project that can be used safely with very young children.
