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.
