Electronics kit
strawberry:
better save this money on some good test gear than something that has no value at all
find something broken to repair, if you fail repair, then salvage parts or convert into something fancy...

motor, buttons,leds and transistor...What would you make? Flashing leds? variable speed motor? Na, you won't waist your time on such stuff

Yeah, you are probably right, I think the kid is planning to design and build a 5G base station and set up a network for his neighborhood...no antenna components, high-power RF transistors...so incomplete!

Here is a very good book for starting with electonics:
https://www.amazon.com/Getting-Started-Electronics-Forrest-Mims/dp/0945053282
You can get a PDF for free:

Here is a parts kit for the book:

JAMECO has many other kits, search the site for 'component kits'. I have one of the resistor kits and a couple of capacitor kits,
The parts kit doesn't have anywhere near as many parts as the eBay kit but I'm not sure how useful 2000 random parts are going to be.

That parts kit is for a completely different (but very similarly titled) book, authored by Øyvind Nydal Dahl.

Look on adafruit for kits. More modern kits for more modern projects.
