My DH spent his childhood tinkering with items like this and can now, basically, fix anything. If nothing else, it will keep them busy for a while.
Some kids love doing that kind of thing, boys and girls.

A lot of future job potential here, in the computer programming, and the trades fields. No matter how technical or advanced things get, we will always have to make and fix things.
