Complete the circuit. See it. Hear it. Explore it.

Can you make the Cosmic Energy Stick burst into life?

Place one hand on each of the silver conductive contacts at either end of the clear tube and bright coloured LEDs begin to flash while the stick sounds. Lift either hand away and it stops.

You’ve completed—and then broken—an electrical circuit.

But the real fun begins when you add other people.

Hold one end of the Cosmic Energy Stick while a friend holds the other, then join your free hands. The stick responds again. Add another person… and another…

How big can you make your human circuit?

As long as there is a suitable conductive pathway connecting the two contacts, the Cosmic Energy Stick can respond. Break that pathway and the lights and sound stop.

See the Science Inside

One of the things we particularly love about the Cosmic Energy Stick is its clear tube. The electronics aren’t completely hidden away—you can actually look inside and explore some of the components that make it work.

Look closely and you can spot the LEDs, connecting

wires, circuit board and electronic sounder. Openings in the end cap allow the sound to escape clearly when the circuit is completed.

So this isn’t just a science toy that flashes and makes a noise. It provides a starting point for asking questions about electricity, circuits, conductivity, resistance and electronic components.

There’s lots more to investigate

Once you’ve mastered the human circuit, the experiments can begin.

What happens if somebody in your human chain lets go? Can you make the circuit even bigger? Will the stick respond if you connect the two contacts using another material? Which materials provide a suitable conductive pathway—and which don’t?

Make a prediction, test your idea and see what happens.

What makes the Cosmic Energy Stick special?

• Bright, colourful flashing LEDs and sound provide an immediate response when the circuit is completed
• Create a human electrical circuit on your own or with family and friends
• Explore open and closed circuits, conductivity and resistance
• Investigate conductors and insulators
• Clear tube lets young scientists see the electronics inside
• Approximately 17.2 cm long × 3 cm diameter
• Easy to hold, highly visual and wonderfully interactive
• Batteries are already fitted
• Includes Scientific Sue’s downloadable teaching notes, packed with additional science and investigation ideas

Less packaging. More science.

We’ve chosen to supply our Cosmic Energy Stick without unnecessary retail packaging. It will, of course, be carefully protected for delivery.

This helps us reduce packaging, keep the price down and put the emphasis where we think it belongs—on the science.

Creative Circuits contents – Colours may vary

Creative Circuits is part of Science2Life’s ‘Science iT!’ Programmes

it is used to teach the basics of electrical circuits in a fun, hands-on way.

Build a 3D model creation and use your scientific knowledge to light it up!

Contents

• 140 g Conductive Craft Doh
• 90 g Insulating Modelling Clay
• 2 x Battery holder with switch, connecting wires and connecting blades
• 4 x 3V Lithium Batteries
• 4 x spare blades
• 8 x LED’s (mixed)

Activity and Educational notes provided – 8 pages!

BATTERIES: 4 x 3V button lithium cells included

HOW ­­­CREATIVE CIRCUITS WORKS?

Creative Circuits uses conductive craft-doh in place of traditional electrical wires and modelling clay to act as an insulating material. The insulating material is there to prevent your conducting wires from touching and hence avoiding short circuits!

A more in depth explanation of a short circuit

This innovation way of playing with electricity allows you to discover the benefits of series and parallel circuits in fun and safe way and then use that knowledge to create your own illuminated 3-D designs.

Science2Life’s Science iT! activities and programmes

Children love to be engaged in learning, especially through interactive projects that they can really get involved and be hands on with.

Science2Life’s Science iT! activities and programmes are part of our STEAM Academy. The activities use everyday life objects, toys and knick-knacks and turns them into fun, innovative, hands-on experiences designed to encourage children to:

• discover the amazing world of science and engineering
• to perform engaging activities that show how science and engineering is at work in their everyday lives
• to foster a lifelong love of science and engineering
• to give a basic grounding in scientific concepts and scientific thinking
• to increase children’s motivation to learn and
• enhance their perception, creativity and logic.

Hands-on learning is learning by doing.

Children involved in our ‘Science iT!’ activities and programmes are introduced to various STEAM learning methods and activities. Our creative programmes involve learning activities that require active thinking and experimenting to find out how things work. We all know how curious children are about the world around them and how they love using the word ‘why?’

The aim of our activities is to provide optimal learning opportunities that strategically help children grasp mathematics, engineering and science concepts.

With the inclusion of the arts component into STEM it makes it more fun to learn, and more approachable to children.

Art education allows children to learn things in a more open-ended way and make them applicable to real life.

Links to the curriculum

All of Science2Life activities can be used to entertain children – however they have been created with the curriculum in mind, so are perfect activities to generate mesmerizing examples of the topics they can be used to explore.

Plus our Science iT! activities can up scaled-up to be used in workshops within the classroom, for festival and birthday celebrations, which provide opportunities for children to collaborate on initiatives, explorations and creations.

The idea behind our Science iT! activities is to ignite children’s natural innate curiosity about the world around them (and the items in it) and to channel their enthusiasm for scientific discovery as early as possible.

Currently Science2Life have the following Science iT! activities:

1. The Magical EVANESCO Spell
2. The Magical AMORTENTIA Spell
3. The Super Bouncing Bubble Kit
4. Make your own Fossil Kit
5. Colour Changing Bracelet Kit

Science that looks like magic! Scientific Sue demonstrates electrostatic levitation with the Electro-Leviosa Wand, making a lightweight Mylar shape float above it.

Electro-Leviosa Wand

Static Electricity Science Experiment for Kids | Bring Science2Life

This ingenious Electro-Leviosa Wand is a toy version of a Van de Graaff machine. Charge it up and watch your tinsel shapes fly!

A hair-raising science moment using a Van de Graaff machine! The girl’s hair strands acquire the same type of electric charge and repel one another, making them spread out.

Where Magic Meets Science!

Ever dreamt of performing Wingardium Leviosa? With The Electro-Leviosa Wand, you’ll make tinsel shapes float and dance — all thanks to the power of electric forces, not spells!

Loved by audiences in Scientific Sue’s Science of Hogwarts Show, this wand brings scientific discovery to life — with a spark of wizarding wonder!

What’s Included

• Electro-Leviosa Wand

• Booklet of shimmering Mylar shapes

• Sheet of decoration stickers

Requires 2 × AA alkaline batteries (not included)

A look inside the Electro-Leviosa Wand, showing the key components of its electrostatic mechanism.

How It Works

Hidden inside the wand’s handle is a clever mechanism with rollers and a moving belt — just like in a real Van de Graaff machine.

When you press the button, the belt builds up a static charge that gathers at the wand’s tip.

Drop a Mylar tinsel shape onto the tip and whoosh! — it’s charged with the same type of static electricity as the wand, so it floats away.

Key Science: Like charges repel; opposites attract!

The Science Behind the Spell

Static electricity is all around us — in lightning, balloon hair, and crackling jumpers!
The Electro-Leviosa Wand helps young wizards ‘see’ electric forces in action. By experimenting, children explore:

• Electric charge and repulsion

• Energy transfer

• Forces at a distance

It’s the perfect hands-on introduction to electricity and energy for classrooms, science clubs, and home play.

Tips for Budding Wizards

• Hold the button for just a few seconds to charge your wand — no need for continuous pressing!

• Works best on dry days (humidity can weaken your magic).

• Make sure the blue wand tip is completely dry.

• Try floating other lightweight materials to see what happens!
