ClockIt
This is a great kit to learn the basics of soldering. ClockIt is a basic alarm clock with buzzer based on the ever popular ATMega328. If you're just learning how to solder, this kit should take you 15-20 minutes. If you're a weathered pro at soldering, this is a great relaxing build that should take 5-10 minutes.
No programmer required. The ATmega comes with firmware installed!

Decent First solo project
I bought this for my 8 yearold daughters first solo soldering project,
The assembly was pretty straightforward although I found that not having a socket for the micro did make the placement of the IC a bit difficult, as well as making me very paranoid that she would burn the IC out (I ended up having to do this step for my daughter), all in all this was a fairly good first project and was completed by a novice with some minor assistance in approximately a hour.
Also the packaged wall wart seems to come in the US configuration, (although it does say that it supports the australian 240VAC 50Hz) and is fairly easy for a adult to bend to the correct angle. )
