Are you ready to make amazing things?
With the do-it-yourself projects in this book, you'll explore the mysterious realm of electricity. Discover how electricity creates light, sound, and action as you:
Use a stack of pennies and cardboard discs to light up an LED
Launch a glowing LED copter into the sky
Play music with a speaker made out of an index card
Make spinning motors from a magnet, some wire, and a battery
Makey the robot and his friends introduce you to electrical circuits, electromagnetism, electroluminescence, AC/DC, the Lorentz force, Ohm's law, and more. They guide you step-by-step through each project with full-color drawings and amusing cartoons. You won't believe the things you can do with some copper wire, batteries, an LED, magnets, and a few craft materials!
