Snappy

For Christmas, I scoured the internet and found the perfect little thing for Trevor.  This gem of a toy is called "Snap Circuits", and it allows our engineer-in-training to make things light up and buzz and spin and beep, just by snapping the pieces together.  If you can put on a western shirt, you can build circuits.  Today alone, Trevi tested the conductivity of saltwater vs. freshwater, he lifted off a flying disc, and he made doorbells and sirens operated by both light and sound. Extreme coolness.  This one goes on my top five list of toys for curious builders (and their curious builder parents).
