Comment on Ask HN: How did you teach analog electronics to your kids?

Comments

Why analog out of interest?

Digital might be a better place to start these days with all of the cheap components you can buy and some of the fun things you can build with digital electronics? Not my kid, but I brought a kid in my family a pack of cheap components and we built things together based on his interest and creativity.

I'd probably just buy a pack of components and build stuff with them like a lego set. Anything you build will present an opportunity to talk concepts like voltage, current, etc. I guess if they're nine you might be able to cover some of the basic math too.
