This pack of 6 kits perfectly outfits your small group with
everything they need for long-lasting play. Great for stations, clubs, and libraries.

Spintronics is a new game (ages 8 to adult) from the makers of Turing Tumble where players build mechanical circuits to solve puzzles. Players feel the pull of voltage and see the flow of current as they discover electronics in a tangible and deeply intuitive way, using the first physical equivalent of electronics ever built. It’s fun, fascinating, easy-to-learn, and irresistible to play.

Leerzaam en mooi

Als cadeau gekocht voor kinderen van 12 en 15. Op vrijdag besteld en een dag later ontvangen. Met name de oudste vindt het erg leuk en herkent veel van het vak techniek op school. Het ziet er allemaal zeer mooi uit en is goed over nagedacht. Zeer geslaagd dus voor de decembermaand.

Amazing to teach physics

As a physics teacher I've always struggled to make elektricity tangible for my students (12/16 yo). Using spintronics as an extra tool works wonders for the students to create a mental image of terms like current, voltage and resistance. Making the students feel how a resistance tries to slow down the currant works wonders in their ability to reason what would happen if they change something about the circuit.
I'm currently talking with coworkers to see if we can make spintronics part of the lesson plan, because im convinced this is the way to teach electronics at a younger age.

The perfect gift for a curious kid.

We bought this for our son's 6th birthday. We knew it was going to be a little advanced, and so would need to be something we did together. But the graphic novel story that unlocks different parts of the process is brilliant. He has already learned so much about how circuits function and we've barely scratched the surface of the journey. High quality pieces, a great story, and something we are all very excited about!

Excellent

J'apprécie vraiment me creuser la tête pour résoudre les énigmes. La transposition de l'électricité en mécanique est très bien faite. Bravo.
