Who Knew a 9-Volt Could Be So Coordinated?

March 19, 2026

Saw this pop up in my feed the other day and had to share. It's one of those things that sounds a little wild, but trust me, it totally works! Someone figured out how to make a regular old 9-volt battery do a pretty convincing walk.

It’s not rocket science, just a clever little trick, and honestly, it's pretty mesmerizing to watch. Definitely made me smile. My kids were super into it, asking how it worked and if we could try it. (Spoiler: you need a couple of magnets and a copper wire!)

Seriously, if you need a quick pick-me-up or just something neat to show the kiddos, hit play below. It’s short, sweet, and surprisingly cool.
