1. Bend

Bend up the leads 
on the motor holder. 

Turn the motor 
on and off by connecting 
and disconnecting leads.

Make sure wires go through 
the motor mount. If they 
don’t, they will break off.

Battery

This is a real engineering project (not a toy). What does that mean? You get to design and build 
your own unique Wiggle-Bot, rather than just following directions.  You’ll also get to cut, wire and 
maybe even pound. Experiment and try different ideas. Keep improving and changing your designs.

Put the battery into the 
holder with the flat side 
against the spring.
