The circuit for this project is quite simple, just connect the Vout pad on Circuit Playground Express (CPX) to the servo's red wire, the A1 pad to the yellow wire, and the GND pad to the brown wire. 

The alligator clip-to-male jumper wire connectors are great for connecting servo motors to CPX.

Circuit, Simplified

If you'd like to forgo the NeoPixel strip and just create a mechanical swimming fish, you can opt to connect just the servo to your Circuit Playground Express, clipping the alligator clips to pads Vout, A1, and GND.

Powering the Fish

Circuit Playground Express can use a variety of power sources, anywhere between 3V-5V is safe. These compact 400mAh lithium ion polymer batteries are excellent for powering small projects like this. 

A set of 3 AAA batteries also provides ample power, if that option is more convenient. If you're using a AAAx3 battery pack, check that the switch on the battery pack is set to "ON" when you want to power the boat.
