Sew Your Own Light-Up Circuit Art: A Crafty Way to Learn About Electricity
Do you love making art and learning new things? Then you’ll love this kit from Klutz that lets you sew your own light-up circuit art! You can choose from three adorable designs: a brilliant owl, a dapper doggo, or a fancy flamingo. Each one comes with a template, felt pieces, sequins, and embroidery floss to make your artwork look amazing.
But that’s not all. You also get to learn about circuits and electricity by stitching sewable LEDs to a battery with conductive thread. This special thread acts like a wire and allows electricity to flow through your stitches. When you connect the LEDs to the battery, they will light up and make your art glow!
You’ll also learn how to make different types of circuits, such as parallel and series, and how they affect the brightness of the LEDs. You’ll discover how resistors work and how to use them to control the current in your circuit. And you’ll find out how switches can turn your LEDs on and off.
The kit comes with a custom frame that perfectly tucks away the battery pack so you can display your art proudly. You can hang it on the wall or stand it on a table. It’s a great way to show off your creativity and your STEM skills!
This kit is suitable for ages 10 and up and requires two AA batteries (not included). It includes everything you need to complete one design, but you can buy more materials from a hobby electronics store if you want to make the other two. Or you can use your own felt and thread to create your own original designs!
