This is an exciting field pack full of fun, simple circuits to make. This is for learning the basics — you’ll be able to create, make, and do 8 different activities!
This pack contains everything to help you get started with soft circuits, sewables, and basic concepts that you can build on.
These make great educational gifts too.

You’ll Make
LED polarity test
A basic circuit with an LED using a breadboard and wires
The same circuit as a soft circuit — sewn with LEDs
A sewable circuit with snaps as a switch and 3 sewable LEDs on felt
Buttons/switches from conductive fabric and felt to control an LED
Velostat as a switch to create an LED with varying brightness
Your own battery holder from conductive fabric, thread, and felt
A final larger project: a zipper circuit to activate a filament LED
Phew, that’s a lot of fun — you’ll keep busy!
Note: The colour of felt, zippers, and LEDs may vary from kit to kit.
