This is the good corner of YouTube—the part where actual expertise meets genuine enthusiasm for teaching. Simply Electronics won't rack up the same view counts as MrBeast, but for a kid who lights up at the idea of building a camera module or troubleshooting a motor drive, this channel is gold.

The challenge series is particularly clever: instead of just consuming content, viewers are invited to solve circuit puzzles and submit solutions. It's the kind of thing that can turn a passive screen session into an active learning project.

The biggest limitation is accessibility. If your kid doesn't already have some interest in electronics or making, this won't convert them—it's too niche and methodical. But for the right teen, this is the kind of content that can spark a genuine skill set and maybe even a career path. Just make sure you're ready to supervise some soldering.
