electrical conducters are madfrom metal because charges can travel through metal but rubber is a insulator so the charges cant get throught it so wires are covered with rubber for safety reasons so you don't get a shock.

Why the plastic must be the parts of the switch and bulbs and batteries in contact with the wires be made of?

Plastic is a good insulator...it does not conduct electricity well. So, for electrical components, such as light switches, wires, and component housings, it's best that they be made out of plastic so that, when you go to touch them, it does not conduct electricity through the material, and through you, which could cause electric shock/electrocution.
