    Just like cars need roads, electricity needs a circuit to travel and help things work,
                     like lighting up a bulb or making a toy move.

                     Important parts of a simple circuit:

                         Battery: It gives power to the circuit so that the electricity can flow and make

                         things work, like lighting up a bulb.
                          Wire: It connects the battery, bulb and other parts of the circuit so that electricity

                         can travel from one part to another.
                         Bulb: It gets power from the battery and when the circuit is complete, the bulb

                         turns on and gives light.
                         Switch: It lets the electricity flow through the circuit, making the bulb light up.
