Bristlebots!

Today we made Bristlebots!  Our adult reference librarian Garrett first introduced Bristlebots to the library and now we're giving it a go in PNG!

It was a lot of fun teaching the kids about batteries and how to complete an electronic circuit!


If you want to give it a go yourself, check out the source!

It was pretty cool. First we got toothbrushes and cut the top off. Then we cut the bristles to make it balanced. Then we put a motor and a battery. It was actually cool to do. So yeah i wanna come back next time and do more stuff like this.
