Circuit Stickers STEM Starter Kit

Circuit Stickers are electronic stickers that you can use to build glowing, sensing, and interactive projects without any complicated equipment or programming skills.

Building circuits with them is fun and easy — just stick them onto a surface like you would with a normal sticker, and build up a circuit by sticking several stickers together and adding a battery. They're an approachable way to learn and create electronics through craft, whether you're just starting out with circuits or creating complex interactive artworks.

Circuit stickers are light, paper-thin and flexible circuit boards cut into small, fun shapes with anisotropic conductive adhesive on the back. The adhesive sticks to most surfaces and can be used with virtually any conductive materials as "wiring"— such as conductive threads and paints or even wires and aluminum foil from your kitchen.

The starter kit comes with the Circuit Sticker Sketchbook, a step-by-step tutorial guide that will get you crafting with electricity in no time!

A roll of copper tape is included as a starter because it is easy to use and sticks virtually to anything. It's also very soft, conductive and solderable, so you can make the circuit as big as you want. If you run out of copper tape, you can get more at your local hardware store in the gardening section— it's normally used to keep snails and slugs out of the garden!

You can re-stick Circuit Stickers a few times, just like regular stickers. Advanced users can also solder to the stickers for more permanent works.

Starter kit includes:

• 6 white LED stickers
• 2 each of red, yellow, and blue LED stickers
• 1 roll of copper tape (5 meters)
• 2 CR2032 coin cell batteries
• 2 small binder clips
• 1 swatch of conductive plastic
• 1 copy of the "Circuit Sticker Sketchbook" by Jie Qi, an introductory guide to using circuit stickers.
