The wires are just insulated copper with the ends sticking out. If you touch the ends to a battery and then to the light the light should go on. They just added a "switch" in the circuit so that the continuous metal path could be easily broken (off) or made continuous again (on).jmommymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038986572848163326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938185068078673572.post-28792136222266897542012-04-23T03:03:44.468-04:002012-04-23T03:03:44.468-04:00OOH I would like directions on how your kiddos did...OOH I would like directions on how your kiddos did this. i just came home from the states with a box of this kind of stuff from Radio shack so we can do electric stuff for our science. I will be checking out the book you mention as well. <br /><br />Kids did a great job figuring it out for them selves:)The Adventurerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129815174861478639noreply@blogger.com
