- Understanding of circuitry and electricity
- Hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills through assembling the snap circuits
- Concepts of motion and force through building a merry go round
- Understanding of light and color through incorporating lights into the design
- Problem-solving skills through troubleshooting any issues with the circuitry or design
For continued development, the child could explore other snap circuit projects or experiment with different designs for the merry go round. They could also learn about the history and science behind amusement park rides and incorporate that knowledge into their creations.
