Electricity Project!!!

Question

Hi, My little brother is in year 6 this year and has just got an Electricity Project that is needed to be handed in in 3 weeks. I have done this project myself but mine didn't do too well so I'm asking anyone if you could think up a simple project that is for people that have just learnt about circuits and have 3 weeks to complete this project.

Answer 1

Get a battery, a switch, some wire, and a light bulb. Wire them so one lead from the battery goes to the switch and one goes to the light bulb, and then a wire going from the switch to the light bulb. You can probably pick these items up a radio shack or get them from broken electronics you may have.  

Answer 2

pull apart one of those littel scale electric cars or any battry operaed toy like that and use the motor to produce electricity by spinning it light up a small bulb or get a few of the hand held cooling fans and hook a couple up in serise to make your wind power generation farm or water wheel it and instant hydro generator

Answer 4

When I was his age I learned a great deal from Radio Shack's electronic project kits.  They are easy to build, unique, safe (no high voltages) and fun too. The entry level kits include the following: a Blinking LED device, a Sound Recording device (records up to 20 seconds), and a Solar Project kit (solar cell drives a DC motor). The more advanced kits allow the builder to create one of many different projects. These include the Electronics 101/ 202/ 303 Snap-kits which allow you to build either 101, 202, or 303 different projects. The snap kits require no wires. They are color-coded and simply snap together to create a project. Have fun!
