Please learn to draw a conventional schematic. Fritzing idiot diagrams are a complete waste of time.Component values are not shown as numbers, the polarity of parts isn't clear, power and ground aren't clear (see below), etc., etc., etc.
How is power supposed to get from the top to the bottom of the breadboard?
Finally the posted idiot diagram has a fatal error, showing the battery + and - connected to the same breadboard trace, for a nice short circuit!
agreed on both last 2 points! it's someone else's diagram, not mine. and i'm ignoring those 2 items but want to use the button/light/buzzer/switch functionality of the project - trying to make an interactive activity board for my toddler
