I remember having hours of fun with this..!!
150 in 1 Electronics kit
This was one of my favourite toys in the '70's and I remember having hours of fun with this..!!
I remember getting it for christmas and soon built the 150 circuits in the book.
After this it was off down to the electronic shop, on my bike, for more components to build bigger and better circuits.
For the ones that were born after the '80's it was a bit like your parents buying an X-Box in kit form and spending all christmas building it..!!
Not like the boring "plug and play" games of today..!! ;) ;)
Real toys that triggered real imagination.
A bit like Steemit.
Steemit is the 2017 version of the 1970's classic of the 150 in 1 Electronics kit.
Let's get that imagination back..!!
Multivibrator
Start with the basics.
I remember first learning about the Multivibrator and once I had I began building all kinds of flashing light toys.
Real toys, the one's that you built yourself..!!
Fun times that brought out the real meaning of imagination.
Thanks for reading

I was trying to find a link, but bought a family member one of these kits just this past Christmas bought from JCPenney. Good links in your comment, these things are very much still available. I would now also get into giving kids programming learning type material as well.
They are really great fun. Stephen
We need more toys like these for kids these days. Im not ashamed to say i would purchase one for myself. Lol
They are brilliant. I remember I had countless hours of fun building the different circuits. You soon appreciate the complexity and yet at the same time the simplicity of basic electronics. Stephen
are these Electronics kit available now @stephenkendal ?
