  1. 1Tap the battery, then the sun catcher.
  2. 2Tap the sun catcher, then the resistor, then the red light.
  3. 3Tap the red light, then the battery, and slide the sun.

What to look for: Slide the sun up and the light glows. Slide it down to the moon and it fades away. The little grey disc is a resistor that light turns.
