Power Lab: Circuits and Games
Hack a flashlight, build circuits & create your own electrical games.
Ever wonder what’s really happening when you flip a switch? Take apart a flashlight, experiment with batteries and aluminum foil, and build your own working circuits. Then put your skills to the test by creating a circuit-powered steady-hand challenge!
1 Your Guide
I am a scientist, a tree hugger, and teacher who loves making and fixing things. I build everything from computer programs to furniture, and fix anything from shoes and clothes to electric bicycles and headphones. I love helping learners to want to know and do more, by guiding them through fun, hands-on experiences which build confidence and curiosity.
