Gear Driven Electric Generator

A magnetic field pulls and pushes electrons in some objects near them to make them move. Metals, like copper, have electrons that are moved easily and can be readily moved from their orbits. If a magnet is moved quickly through / near a coil of copper wire, electrons move and electricity is made This fun toy works on the principle highlighted above.
