Build Solar Bugs with Brown Dog Gadgets

Learn about solar energy in a fun and creative way! The new solar bug design has students creating a simple solar circuit in minutes using only conductive tape! Cut out your bug, decorate it, then add the included solar cell and vibrating motor! 

These bugs will zip around any smooth surface when in direct sunlight and make a silly clattering sound. 
Materials Needed:

Each Solar Bug Kit includes all the parts you need to create your own bug. Building a bug takes 5-10 minutes to construct, with additional time needed for decorating.
