If it is a 1.5 volt bulb you can connect it through a series circuit directly to your battery.
If the bulb is not made to run on 1.5 volts and needs another voltage, it may not light up!

How does a battery make a light bulb work?
If you place an end of a wire on the negative or positive side, put the outer metal part of the light bulb's cap on the other, and place the other end of the wire on the light bulb's cap's inner metal part, it will turn on.TipBefore you try to do this, always check that the voltage of the battery is equal to, or a bit less than, the voltage of the light bulb!Otherwise the light bulb may only give out a very bright flash and could easily be destroyed.

What will happen after you make an Electric Circuit?
If you connect the circuit properly the bulb should light up. That means attaching the left side of the battery to the right side of the bulb using a wire and attaching the right side of the battery to the left side of the bulb. If you do that the your bulb should turn on. If it doesn't then try changing the battery or the bulb.

Can you light a flashlight with some lemons?
Yes it is possible to make an acid battery using the acid in a lemon. (you would need allot of lemon batteries to light a flashlight bulb though - try using a diode light bulb) For more information on how to do this look in the link I will place below.
How do you make a circuit with a light bulb and battery?
Get your bulb, it should be a very small wattage (weak) one, get your battery and wires, connect one wire to plus side of abttery and other wire to minus side of battery, then connect to the bulb, you may have to play around a bit to find a connection that produces light.
