Science 04 : Safe Simple Electric Light

Some person maybe afraid of dark when they going to sleep, so they buy night lamps. Some person maybe already start to think "Hmm, I think I better make it by myself. But how?". If they're gonna ask that, I'll answer it. But first, you need to learn electricity flows. All thought, you should read books to know about this better. But now, I'll help you to make one. First, you need this things on the lists :

1. Mini light bulbs for experiments(note: the light bulbs must able to light by batteries power)
2. Batteries Holder ( 4 Batteries holder )
3. 4 Batteries size AA
4. A medium size box ( Don't use big boxes, you'll need more batteries & light bulbs for that )
5. A tracing transparent paper (I mean the paper you'll able to trace something manually by your hands)
6. Cables
7. Light swich
8. A Pencil
9. An eraser
10. A Ruler ( at least 30 cm )
11. A Glue
12. Decorative materials
13. Scissor / Cutter ( I recommend to use scissor )

How to make it :

1. Draw any picture you like in the transparent tracing paper. Note: you can decorate the picture too by using color pencils or markers, even you can use a dust glitter.
2. Cut a hole shaped rectangular in the box, but make it like a frame.
3. Now, rearrange the light bulbs with the cables and the light switch. Then, attach it to the box. Make it see-able by the hole.
4. Attach the picture you draw in the transparent tracing paper using a glue in the box, right in front of the hole.
5. Decorate the box using any decorative materials you want
6. Now you get your own night light in box shaped.

If you are creative enough, you could turn it into any shape you like or if you want to have a Christmas type lights, you can use a color changing lights and no box used. So just simply used a color changing lights and connect it to the cable and the battery holder and the light switch. I guess that's all I've got in here. Well, thank you for reading this until the end of pages.
