Begin by cutting strips of aluminum foil and placing glue stick on them. Wrap them around the parts of the action figure or doll that you want to be able to interact with. Tuck in the white wires that are included in your creation kit. Be certain that the various pieces of foil do not touch.

Continue to place the foil and the wires on the different parts of the action figure or doll. Be certain that the circuits are clear and wont short circuit by metal touching metal.

Redress your action figure to allow for modesty. When redressing, make sure that the wires stay in good connection.

Connect the alligator clips to the white wires, ensuring that you have the correct one connected to the correct body part. Making a list as a reference is very helpful during this step. Connect the other ends of the alligator clips to the makey makey.

Make a loop out of aluminum foil and attached an alligator clip to it. This will then be placed around your wrist. Attach the other end of the alligator clip to the EARTH part of the makey makey.

By touching the various parts of the action figure, the computer will now state the muscle name found in that area. Depending upon what material the action figure clothing is made from, you may have to undress your action figure to get it to work.
