LOL,
Another kit that can be helpful when trying to learn some basic electronics would be this.
It will add to your stock of components to play around with as well as give you a larger breadboard to set up your circuits with. The handy instruction Manuel will walk you threw some electronics basics and teach you how to use the components provided. This kit was the first thing i got before i picked up my Arduino. Figured i needed to refresh my basic knowledge of electronics before piling programming on top of it.
