Got a potato in the pantry? Then you can “produce” electricity! Certain metals can react with the “raw” ingredients in the potato to create an electrical circuit. This post from Sciencing shows you how to set up this experiment for your kids (or the inquisitive kid in you adults!). Unless you have a fully stocked workshop in your garage or shed, you may need to make a visit to your local hardware store to get the right type of metal nails, plastic-coated wire, and a 1-volt LED bulb. But any excuse to get out of the house is welcomed at this point, right?

Post a Tik-Tok or other video of you producing electricity from a potato below!
