We live in an electronics age with space satellites, moon landings, computers, etc. You might think that these are very complicated but they are all based on some quite simple electronic circuits.

Children will be able to make electric organs and violins, flip-flop circuits for sound and light and a variety of other exciting pieces of electronic wizardry. All the components are readily available and the equipment needed to build the circuits is simple and as inexpensive as possible. This makes it possible for youngsters to enjoy all the excitement of making and using the circuits and learning something about electronics at the same time.

You can learn something of this miracle by reading the Ladybird book The Story of Radio,
