Make a mouse out of paper! Just use a 6B pencil to draw your controller and plug and play to have your own DIY Paper Mouse Controller! Draw arrows to control your mouse cursor. Make your drawings really thick and make sure there is a way to connect your alligator clips. Draw a button for Left Click. Grab your Makey Mouse Backpack, it is green! Align all pins on the backpack board with the headers on Makey Makey. Gently squeeze the boards together with even pressure, making sure all pins enter the corresponding holes.
Now alligator clip each drawing to your Makey Mouse backpack. Connect the up arrow to the up movement, the left arrow to left movement, etc. Attach drawing of CLICK to Left Click on the Makey Mouse.
