   A company called Velleman makes some pretty cool little soldering kits, such   
   as a die simulator that you can shake and it will display a representation of   
   a random(?) die face on some LEDs.    
      
   Another option is a DSO138 (that's an "oh," not a "zero") oscilloscope kit.   
   It's pretty easy to solder, and when you're done you have a functional   
   oscilloscope that you can use to explore the innards of your kit computer,   
   when you get there.
