A card is always appreciated on a special occasion, and a handmade card even more so. But what's cooler than a handmade card? One that lights up!
Over the Spring school holidays, we'll supply you with all the materials and know-how to make your very own light up card with our Paper Circuits activity kit. Collect your kit from one of our three library branches, then follow the simple instructions below. Limited kits available so get in quick!
Available from City of Canada Bay Libraries at Five Dock Library, Concord Library, or The Learning Space in Rhodes, from Monday 28 September.
Alternatively, if you have your own materials, download and print our easy-to-use templates below.
Suitable for ages 7-14 years.
Please note: this activity contains a small coin battery and LEDs, therefore is not suitable for children under the age of 7.
