Squishy Circuits Printable

How to make a simple electric circuit using Playdoh.

April 5, 2019

This is a printable I made for explaining playdoh circuits to Brownies. I gave them each kits at our meeting, and this print out would be helpful for parents when the materials came home.

It was based off this video which is super helpful in explaining how they work:

To make the kits, you’ll need my instruction sheet:
