Last week Billy asked how a light bulb worked, and I gave him a simple answer about electricity. Of course, that was too simple for him, and to mask my ignorance I told him we'd make that a science experiment for another day.
Yesterday I changed a light bulb. Who throws away a seemingly worthless light bulb with a budding scientist around? Not I!
After some simple safety warnings, I gave Billy the light bulb and a diagram.
BORING!
Why not put the bulb in a ziplock and add a hammer?
Now that's more like it!
There's no better way to explore a light bulb than to see it in person!
