Light Stitches Gingerbread Man - Single

The Light Stitches Gingerbread Man Kit is a KS3 Design and Make project aimed at year 8s so it is also suitable for lower ability Year 9s and higher ability year 7s.

It uses smart textiles and electronic components to turn on up to 3 lights (LEDs) when the soft switch is pressed. The Gingerbread Man Kit uses smart conductive thread allowing connections to be easily made by simply tying a knot or sewing around the LEDs and other components.
