I'm looking to get my little brother a nerd-ish toy.


I was thinking about some sort of kiddy breadboard or something. any suggestions?


He's 12, by the way.

12? doesn't need to be even really 'kid ish' Depending on price range, look at one of the make magazine built a bot kits, or a 500 in one or other electronics lab mounted component type breadboard system ,where you just wire the components on the board.
