"Just fantastic. My 9 year old is loving the intro to circuits and programming. Way better than I thought it would be."

What you are buying

Two things arrive together: a box of 38 real electronics parts, and the TechToast app, a step-by-step teacher on a screen. The parts push together by hand, no tools, nothing hot, nothing sharp. The app walks the builder through every step of all 25 weekly builds, right in the browser, nothing to install.

Think LEGO: you buy the bricks and the joy of building, not the finished castle, except everything built here really works. The box brings the parts. The screen brings the teacher.

How a build works

Every week, one new build, same four moves: wire it up from a picture, snap on-screen blocks into a program, press Upload and watch it run on the table, then learn why it worked. Week 1 is a single button and a light, finished in one sitting. Week 25 unlocks with the tap of a card.

Why it works

Real building is the foundation for real understanding.

Nobody learns electronics from a video. They learn it with real parts in their hands and a teacher beside the work. That is the whole kit: 25 builds that get made, taken apart, and made again, with the app explaining the why at the exact moment it lands.

Kits shipped worldwide, to builders who wanted something that actually holds attention past an afternoon.

25

New builds, one a week, each one stacking a new skill on the last, from a first light to a card that unlocks a screen.

How a week works

Wire it up. Snap the blocks. Watch it run. Learn why.

One new build a week, same four moves. Most people assume the hard part is the wiring. It is not.

  • 1

    Wire it up

    Real parts, real wires, a picture to copy. A wire in the wrong spot never breaks anything. The light just stays dark until it is moved.

  • 2

    Snap the blocks

    On-screen blocks click together into a program. "If the button is pressed, turn the light on." That is a real program a seven year old can read.

  • 3

    Watch it run

    Press Upload. The program leaves the screen, travels down the cable, and runs on the table.

  • 4

    Learn why it works

    The part most kits skip. While the light is still on and the builder is proud, the app explains the why, then dares them one step further.

25 weeks, 25 builds, all on our actual table

Meet the teacher

You do not have to know any of this. The app does.

Every wire, every block, every press of the button. The TechToast app sits beside the work and says exactly what is next, right in the browser. These are real screens.

Guided Week 1 step in the app, one drawer glowing

It holds your hand the whole way

Week 1 is thirteen small steps, one at a time. The one drawer you need glows, and if you stall, "Show me" and "Place it for me" are waiting.

Show Code view: the blocks beside the real code they wrote

It shows you the real code

One tap reveals the real code your blocks just wrote, with notes in plain words like "turn the board's little light on." Nobody has to touch it. It is a door the teacher leaves open.

The app prompting to press Upload and watch the build wake up

Press Upload. Watch it wake up

You read the program out loud, then one press sends it down the cable, and the light on the table comes on because you told it to. And when something will not light up, real engineers answer your message.

Included with every kit, for life. Every lesson, every build, no subscription, ever.

A whole different kind of kit

Why 10,000+ builders chose the kit with the teacher inside.

Most electronics kits ship a bag of parts and a PDF, and go quiet by week two. This one brings a teacher that stays for all 25 weeks.

The money part

Everything is in one kit.

Closer to signing up for guitar lessons, with the guitar included. What you are really buying is the teaching, 25 weeks of it, beside the builder from the first wire to the last. One payment buys all of it.

"Interesting for my teenaged grandson as it was a quick process to complete tasks (as long as he concentrated!) but also challenging. He learned a lot about electronics and the names and functions of all the components by actually using them. Always the best way to learn. 😊"

Who is behind this

TechToast was built by someone who taught himself electronics and coding as an eight year old kid. This kit is exactly what he wishes he had had on that journey: the same real parts, with the teacher already inside. And when a build will not light up, real engineers answer your message. Not a script, not a bot. For life, with every kit.

Before you add to cart

Questions we get asked most.

What age is it for?

It is made for ages eight and up, with no upper limit: adults into their 80s have finished it. Younger builders have finished it too, with someone alongside for the first few weeks.

Is it hard? Do we need to solder?

No soldering: nothing hot, nothing sharp, no tools. Every part pushes in by hand and pulls straight back out, so nothing breaks from a mistake, and the same parts rebuild into project after project, forever. The app goes one small step at a time, with pictures. Week 1 is a single button and a light, finished in one sitting.

How much do parents have to do?

Less than you think. Sitting in on Week 1 is nice; after that the app runs the show, and most parents' whole job is being the audience. When a build stalls, the answers come from our engineers, not from you.

Do we have to keep up with a weekly pace?

No. It is laid out as 25 weeks, but there is no schedule behind it: no start dates, no weekly calls, nothing that expires. Build faster, build slower, build at any hour of any day, or save it for the holidays. It is called a 25-week kit because most people put in about one to two hours a week, not because anyone is keeping count.

What do we need at home?

Any computer with the free Chrome or Edge browser: Windows, Mac, and Chromebook all work. Nothing to install. The lessons and building work anywhere; sending a program to the board is the part that needs the computer and the cable.

Is the app extra? Is there a subscription?

No and no. The TechToast app comes with the Learn & Build Kit V2: every lesson, all 25 weeks, lifetime access. There is no subscription, no renewal, and nothing to cancel, ever.

What exactly do we get for $199?

Everything, once: the box of real parts, all 38, plus the TechToast app with the full 25 weeks of step-by-step lessons, lifetime access, free worldwide shipping, and real engineers a message away for life. Finish all 25 weeks and the app prints a certificate with the builder's name on it. About $8 a week across the course. What you are really paying for is the shot at 25 finished builds, and a builder who knows for certain they can make things work.

What if it does not land with my kid?

You have got 30 days and a full money-back guarantee. Give it a few real weekends or evenings; if nobody is reaching for it, email us within the 30 days and get every cent back.

One last thing

Builders aren't born. Somebody lights the spark.

We have shipped 10,000+ kits worldwide, and the thing we hear back most isn't about the parts at all. It is the moment somebody gets pulled over to the table: "Come see what I made." Eight years old or eighty, that sentence sounds exactly the same. That is the real product. The rest is parts. There is one part we can't put in the box, though. The spark has to be handed over. That part is yours.
