Building the fan from its frame to its propeller shows that even simple appliances rely on a motor, a circuit and a sturdy structure working together. It is a good stepping stone to more involved motorized kits once kids are comfortable connecting components. A quick, satisfying build for a first electronics project. See more STEM kits.
