littleBits has created a collection of functional components that snap together easily allowing the creator to invent anything from a robot that draws to an auto pet feeder to a synthesizer! No engineer degree required.
They have many kits to choose from providing you with a nice starting point from which you can add onto later on if you wish. A fantastic gift for anyone who likes to tinker and loves technology. Kids will love littleBits too; they are like Legos for this generation. A great opportunity for a parent/child project.
Our daughter received the Star Wars Droid set last Christmas and loved it! She had so much fun building it, completing challenges and continuing to add on to it to increase its capabilities.
Here's a sampling of some of their kits:
