While the image shows black momentary pushbuttons, you can use any colored button as long as it
is momentary pushbutton to trigger the sounds!
Troubleshooting
No Sound
Given the size and shape of the piezo buzzer, it is easy to miss the right holes on the breadboard.
Try double-checking its placement.
Also, double check to make sure the push button is wired correctly. If you miswired it, then the circuit
will never be completed even if you press the button or not.
Feeling Let Down and Deserted
