Making Connections: playing with electrical circuits
This week in Create, Make, Innovate, we explore electrical circuits: squishy and paper-based. Play-based, hands-on learning activities appeal to our creativity and our curiosity.
Paper Circuits
Paper circuits are easily constructed with different combinations of conductive material glued to or laid over paper. Materials may include conductive copper tape, conductive thread, insulated wires, paper clips, bulldog clips, pencil lead, virtually anything that allows electricity to flow. Combining these with 3V lithium batteries, LED lights, buzzers, etc. creates endless possibilities of circuits. […]
