As one of the top online toy retailers, we have access to unprecendented quantities of product review data. One of the key ways that we use this data is by associating our products to the specific ages and genders of the kids who are playing with them. Whereas most retailers must rely upon manufacturer suggested ages (i.e. 3+), we take actual customer usage and share it with you here so that you can choose the perfect toy or game.
But how does this help me? You can use these graphs as a general measure of it's appropriateness for a given age and gender. While this information is generally accurate, it should not be used as an absolute answer. For instance, many dinosaur toys are purchased for boys, however, that doesn't mean that it's inappropriate for a girl who happens to like dinosaurs.

NOTE: The orange color in the charts above indicate ages that are LESS than the manufacturer suggested age. Please purchase at your discretion if your child is younger than 10 years of age.

A great learning toy for an 8 year old and his grampa to put together and learn from one generation to another! I dont know who is having more fun, the 72 year old or the 8 year old! an interactive toy in the days of computors is a great thing. Even better is the social connection it is making.

My rating of Electric Motor Generator Kit
Posted 4/20/2010 by Frank S. Dzielski
Rating: 
The motor when constructed cannot be used as a motor because it does not produce enough torque and there is not way to connect a device to the motor. It is a toy that functions but it has no utility. The parts are very small not good for adult fingers. Buying a real motor and disassembling it would be a better choice. Motors come as single phase, multiphase this is a primitive device that has no function.

Review of Electric Motor Generator Kit
Posted 2/11/2010 by Cyndi
Rating: 
I gave this as a gift and additional things were needed to perform the experiments (i.e. paper clips, batteries, etc). I don't have a problem with this but would have liked to have known so I could have had a little bag with me with the additional items. We had taken it on a long plane ride and it was disappointing not to be able to do some of the fun stuff in the book.

Cool Kit

My husband was looking for a build-it-yourself electric motor kit as a Christmas present for our nine-year-old son. This not only fit the bill, but also included experiments and other building ideas. It was more than just "build an electric motor and watch it work".
My husband and son spent some good "man time" building together. My son was all excited to be able to have generated a tenth of a volt with just wires and a magnet, and my husband was in his electrical engineer glory. drawing charts and waves by way of explanation.
