Below is a demonstration of connecting a simple circuit. You can start with this simple circuit
as a practice before moving to other advanced circuits.
First of all, take out the components shown in below diagram from your amazing connection
kit. They may be packed in different bags. Then install them like the pictures shown.
It is now done! Insert 2pcs AA size batteries to the 3V battery compartment. Turn the
switch on. The circuit is connected and current can flow in the circuit. Then the bell will
ring!

11• Connect the wand (06) to the spring connector
(7a).
10• Fix the metal wire (08) on the spring
connectors (7d) and (7e).
It is now done! Insert 2pcs AA size
batteries to the 3V battery
compartment. Turn the switch on
and put the ring of the wand around
the metal wire via the open area of
the ring. Keep your hand steady and
carefully move the ring of the wand
through the metal wire. If the ring
touches the metal wire, the bell will
ring and you lose!
Complete the maze to achieve the
fastest time against your friends.
Bend the metal wire to create
different levels of difficulty. Please
ensure the switch is off and
batteries are removed from battery
compartment before bending the
metal wire.
You can switch to use other
functions by replacing the spring
pole with flying disc or color filter.

You need to firstly prepare some bubble
solution. It may be bought from the shop, or
made in the bathroom (under adult
supervision) by adding soap into water to
become the bubble solution. When bubble
solution is available, fill it into the bubble
solution container.
Insert 2pcs AA size batteries to the 3V
battery compartment. Turn ON the switch.
The bubble plate will start to spin and the
blower will blow out bubbles. You will see
beautiful bubbles shooting out in continuous
bubble stream!

FOR MORE CONNECTING FUN!
How to Connect
After you have successfully assembled the basic individual units, you can create more
exciting interaction with the MAZE CHALLENGE and BUBBLE SCIENCE together! Here are
some basic things to note when using connecting bridges to connect these units together:
If needed, you can adjust the position of the assembled parts on the box base with holes to
suit the 2in1 connection. There’s no need to keep their position exactly as the basic
assembly. You can adjust their positions so long as the circuit connection is correct as the
instruction.
There are 3 holes on each connecting bridge. Therefore switch or spring or other things can
be installed onto the connecting bridges. This is useful when you find the box base with
holes is crowded and hard to find rooms on it. These diagrams are examples:
Put the 2 box bases together. Use connecting bridges to connect them firmly. Then follow
below connecting diagrams to connect!

FIG.1
Note: For the purpose of demonstration, below diagrams are general electrical circuits in
our daily life only. They are not circuits for Connex kits.
The circuit shows in fig.1 is a series circuit. It involves series connection.
As electricity flows in a single path, the current flow through each device will be the same.
However, if any one of the device is broken, the circuit will be disconnect and cannot
function.
EDUCATIONAL HINTS
Series and Parallel connection
The circuit shows in fig.2 is a parallel circuit. It involves parallel connection.
Each electricial device is connected in parallel. If one device is broken, the other devices
can still work.

When you have skilled through this set, you can even design your own circuit to have
different interesting play! The following is an example of creating an alternate 2in1 circuit
for an alternate play effect:
Insert 4pcs AA batteries and switch on the ON/OFF switch. The bubble blower will blow
continuous bubble stream immediately! Now challenge yourself with the maze challenge.
Keep your hand steady and carefully move the ring of the wand through the metal wire. If
the ring touches the metal wire, the bell will be triggered and you fail! Complete the maze
before the bubble blower is running out of bubbles!
