Would a bright 11 year old girl who is into science like this toy?

My son is 6 and gifted in Math and Science. He really enjoys it putting the configurations together then seeing what happens if he changes something around. You might think of it as advanced Legos - you put the bricks in the right order and you can make something interesting happen. The kids get a pretty good idea of how curcuits, resistors, etc work. If your child is interested in electronics, its is definately a good introduction. The 300 set comes with two booklets with a couple hundred projects/configurations. I believe they get progressively more difficult, but we are still on the first book. In the first book, the changes between one project and the next are sometimes minimal, but I believed designed to help the student understand how little changes can make a different outcome in the project. I hope this helps.

Yup. Can't go wrong here. I ended up buying the most of them. The kids love them.

Yes. I bought this for my 10-yr-old daughter who's in G.A.T.E. Program and love's math. She enjoyed doing the projects and discovering the wonders of physics. Her sister, 8 yrs old, also enjoyed playing with it with her sister. Its very educational and fun.

Yes, definitely. There are many projects. My son hasn't even come close to finishing them all.

Yes, this is a great learning "toy"! Kids have fun building projects while learning about electricity. Our son is younger, but gifted. For safety reasons, he could only build projects with our supervision and he was constantly asking us to watch him build. I asked him if he thought a bright 11 year old girl who has interested in science would like this and he thought she definitely would. Excellent gift!!

My grandson is younger but way ahead of his age and my nephew is 7 and both are addicted to this. They get help from their parents but love working with it. Btw, microscope is something else they liked since I gave one to each.

If she like board games and is bright, she could do it. I play it at school with 1st graders

Purchased as a gift for my 11 year old daughter. She asked for X. She likes it very much. I've heard if one has x and another y you can play each other.

Yes. It is nice, but really for younger children. An 11 year-old could handle something closer to the real thing.

I bought one for my 10 yr old and she likes it. It might be pretty hard for a 5 yr old but I would get it. It will be a fun challenge.

If your 11 year old enjoys building things then I can say "Yes, they will love it". My 9 year old loves building shapes and then running the marbles through over and over and over. He likes the plans as well as doing his own shapes.

A 10 year old would like it, but I don't think it would hold her interest for every long. I purchased one for my 7 year old and she quickly got bored with it.

I purchased this for a six year old. Her older sister (11) helped her with it. Once it was set up and played with a couple of times the older sister lost interest (learned what she could from it.) The six year old has played with it off and on for 2 years.

The short answer is that she's probably on the old side for this. My son is now 11 and while he does still tinker with it, I would need to purchase the add on kits to keep his interest. While I think it was a pretty good product, it didn't really fulfill what I had in mind as far as teaching him about electricity and circuitry. It is a bit like one of those science kits, it does something interesting, but doesn't really teach them why. I honestly think this would be a better age range for 6-10 year old's. Hope that helped, good luck and take care.

I bought a microscope for my 4 year old and she loves it. she still plays with it turning 5 so i think it was a great buy.

I believe so. Our nephew had just turned 5 and his little 4 - year old neighbor girl played with it for hours when he first got it. It's not so electronic, which was nice to see them use their imaginations.

I think if she loves My Little Pony and she loves reading, this toy will be great for her! She can choose to read along, be read to, or read all by herself.

It would work, but I would suggest getting a full size set. Your 11 year old will outgrow this set in the next couple of years.

I would think so. My 6 yr old son and 4 yr old and 2 yr old daughters all love it-it is a pretty gender neutral toy. Hope that helps.

I would say so, I bought it for an 11 year old girl and she was able to use it easily. Its not too complicated and is good enough to do basic observations.

Yes definitely, it is an amazing and fun toy to have. My niece was 4 when I bought it for her. She loved and she is still playing with it! Great toy!

This Lego toy is very dependent upon the how much the child likes Minecraft. An 11 year old would be a good age for the set if the child is a Lego and Minecraft fan.
