My Lighting Heart

Today, we made hearts that glow.  First we used the hot glue gun to make a heart shape.  We needed to make it really fat, so we had to add glue, let it cool, then add more.  I think we used three-and-a-half glue sticks.



Then we took a red LED light and made a hole in the back of the heart for it to go in.  We used a little watch battery for power, then we used magnets to connect the wires from the light to the battery.  When we completed the circuit, the light made the whole heart glow red.  It looked beautiful!



Then I got more little magnets, and used them to stick the heart on my clothes.  I put a magnet inside my dress, then I put the heart on the outside.  This makes it stick without falling, because the magnets are really strong.  I did the same thing with a real butterfly!


You can make circles and glue them to anywhere.  You can make any shape!
