Yes, Snap Circuits has the PICAXE 08M.

The PICAXE 08M is included in 4 Snap Circuits sets:

Upgrade SC300 to SCM400 # UC-100 $74.95

Snap Circuits XP # SCXP-50 $99.95

Snap Micro™ I From Elenco # SCM-400 $119.95

Snap-Micro™ I Deluxe from Elenco # SCM-450 $149.95

these sets can be ordered from: http://cs-sales.net/snapcircuits.html

Kinda pricey, but if you already have Snap Circuits sets, you might be able to to get parts separately: http://cs-sales.net/sncirepa.html

If you already have a PICAXE 08M, you can probably get away with:

Eight-Pin IC Socket # 6SC ?U8 $6.95 Not only can you use it for the PICAXE 08M, but also for a 555 timer chip.

Battery Holder 4.5V (3-AA) # 6SC B3 $3.75 or 9V Holder & Switch (for SCP-03) # 6SC B5 $4.95

I am unable to find the Snap circuits programming cable to order it online so, try calling elenco directly at 1-800-533-2441 to see if you can order one directly from them. The part is called “snap circuits programming cable” 9TLSCXP
