1 set electronic components, 5 sculpting tools, 6 containers play dough (6 pieces total) : plastic, metal, dough, color ; in container 15 x 31 x 16 cm + 1 quick start guide
Title from container. Battery pack has a slider to make lights blink and buzzers beep at different speeds. Other electrical components are black plastic with red and black wires and metal terminals. Fan is green plastic. LEDs are in 8 colors: red, blue, yellow, orange, green, purple, white, and color-changing, 5 of each color. Sculpting tools are black plastic and in different shapes to allow the dough to be shaped in several ways. Cylindrical plastic container for the tools functions as the rolling pin. Dough comes in 7-ounce containers. Colored dough contains enough salt to conduct electricity. It comes in 7 colors: red, blue, yellow, orange, green, purple, and black. White dough is different and functions as an insulator blocking electrical current.
Contents:
Battery holder -- On/Off switch -- Mechanical buzzer -- Piezoelectric buzzer -- Motor -- Fan -- 40 LED lights -- 5 sculpting tools -- Rolling pin -- 7 containers conductive dough -- 1 container insulating dough.
Summary:
Uses conductive and insulating play dough to teach the basics of electrical circuits in a fun, hands-on way. Designs are lit with the LEDs, make noise with the buzzers, and spin with the motor.
