The snap kits have decent projects, but the explanations in the instruction manual are so abbreviated as to be worthless. MIght work well if you print out your own explanations. Or maybe you can find projects in the snap kits that illustrate points in the textbook you're using.
A few years ago, I was impressed with the educational value of the instruction manual for the Radio Shack "Electronics Learning Lab" catalog # 28-280, now discontinued. The manual was written by a well-known, now retired electronics writer whose name I forget. I don't know whether the Radio Shack headquarters would still have any.
