The simplest safe way to view a solar eclipse is with a "pinhole projector," which is not much more than a box with a few holes in it. At one end of a long box or tube, cut a hole, cover it with aluminum foil, and poke a pinhole in the foil. At the other end, line the inside of the box with white paper to use as your "screen." Somewhere along the side of the box, cut a hole for viewing. Point the pinhole at the sun, and look through the viewing hole at the screen on the other end.
