SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit

The SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit is an innovative, educational tool designed to teach the basics of creating an electric circuit. This kit is perfect for those who are new to electronics, as it doesn't require any soldering or coding. The kit includes everything you need to assemble 10 light-up robot cards, using simple components like templates, strips of copper tape, and LEDs. Each card takes between five to 10 minutes to assemble, making it a quick and fun learning experience.

The beauty of the SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit lies in its simplicity. A paper circuit is an electronic circuit built on a paper surface, making it a perfect blend of traditional art and modern technology. They are versatile and can be used in a range of projects from greeting cards to origami. The use of fine art techniques to create a functional circuit makes this kit unique and popular among hobby electronics enthusiasts.

To create each circuit card, you will need a few additional items that are not included in the kit. These are CR2032 coin cell batteries, scissors, a hole punch, and tape. To further customize your robot cards, you can use any colouring supplies you have on hand. If you need more individual card kits, you can either download the card from the Documents tab and order the additional components separately, or opt for the SparkFun Paper Circuits Classroom Pack which includes 30 individual card kits.

Please note that due to shipping restrictions, the SparkFun Paper Circuits Kit does not include any CR2032 coin cell batteries. You will need to purchase up to 10 CR2032 batteries separately.
