Unleash your inner scientist with this fun and educational potato battery experiment! This DIY science experiment is perfect for curious minds wanting to learn about electricity and how it works. In this video, we'll demonstrate how to light up an LED using nothing but a potato, coins, and a few wires - a great hands-on way to understand the concept of a simple battery!
Ever wondered how to make a potato battery or how a potato can generate electricity? Join us as we delve into the fascinating world of basic physics and chemistry. This experiment uses the phosphoric acid in potatoes to trigger a reaction between copper and zinc, creating an electrical current strong enough to power an LED light.

Materials needed for this kid-friendly science experiment:
Potato
Copper coins
Zinc Washers or nails
LED light
Wires

We walk you through each step of the experiment, from inserting the coins into the potato to connecting the wires and lighting up the LED.

This video is a part of our #TheDadLab series, where we make learning science fun and engaging. Remember, the best way to learn is by doing!
