                    Activity: Create a Simple Paper Circuit

                    1.  Use a small battery, some copper tape, and an LED.

                    2.   Connect the copper tape to both ends of the battery and the LED to make it
                       glow.

                    How to complete: Stick the copper tape on paper, connect it to the battery and
                    the LED, and watch the light glow when the circuit is closed.
