Making a Battery

All you need is a copper strip and a zinc strip, blotter paper, a rubber band, grain of wheat light bulb, this blue solution called copper sulfate.

So what you do is put the copper strip on one side of the blotter paper and the zinc strip on the other and make sure their not touching otherwise it won't work. Once you have them lined up put a rubber band around them and bend the other end of the copper and zinc strips. After you do that put the grain of wheat light bulb wires on the copper and the zinc and tape them there. After that put the side with the rubber band on it in the blue solution and the light bulb should light up. (you might have to push on the wires to make the light bulb light up.)
