Your battery-powered flashlight is a good example of a DC series circuit. Battery power is DC. The battery is connected to a wire or piece of metal that's connected to a switch that is connected to an incandescent light bulb (resistor/thermistor) which is then connected to another piece of metal or wire which is connected to usually a spring in the end of the flashlight which creates a ground to the negative terminal of the battery.

How do you build a series circuit in your home?

You do not build a series circuit in your home. The only series circuits are the circuits that go through circuit breakers, light switches, and relays. Electrical and electronic devices use internal series circuits but those are the only ones people build. No one builds series circuits for house wiring. Electrical outlets are connected with parallel wiring.
