@MakersHour Q2 Maker as a child?
A2: Absolutely! Maybe it was a result of Legos. I was recently discussing with my partner that perhaps Lego Technics are why I seem to more intuitively understand the mechanics of a camera she was trying to repair.
Even playing with electronics started in elementary school with kits like https://www.pololu.com/product/1657
The "Astable Multivibrator" (LED blinker) was my favorite circuit in elementary school.

Learn electronics with the Elenco 200-In-One Electronic Project Lab! This kit includes everything you need to get started building your own electronic circuits. Components such as resistors, capacitors, LEDs, ICs and more are securely attached to the electronic lab so you can spend less time searching for components and more time learning how to build that next circuit! This kit requires six AA batteries (not included).
