here is a pic of what i am using to make them blink

i figured out how to hinge eyelids and even managed to murder this pink ape thing i got after V day that danced to make the lids move. the inner mech of the ape was a bar that moves up and down and i have that moving the lids BUT the lids move every second!
the ape would dance for 30 seconds then shuts off (it sang too but i killed that part thank gawd) and the eyes blink 30 times in 30 seconds then stop as a result. right now i can manually use the on/off button to make them open and close VS left running for 30 secs but getting the timing right to have them stop in the open position is really hard, push it too soon or to slow and the eye stops either closed or half open, and since i cannot SEE the eyes while worn this is an issue...

also when i was extending the cord i found if the wires touch the thing stays on when the wires do not touch and turned off when the wires touched again, so this means this "test the item while still in its box" button thing i saved from battery powered lights which made the lights stay on only while the button was held down does not work because it needs to be clicked again to get the eyes to stop moving....

the batteries are in the moving part btw

so my question is - is there a way to slow this thing down? is there some kind of time delay on/off button i can use instead of the manual push on/off button? like is there some thing i can use instead of the on/off button where once i turn it on it sends out and on/off signal every 15, 30 or 60 seconds? hell even every 5 seconds would be an improvement over this. the on signal would have to last only 1-2 seconds with a gap between on signals.

one thing i thought of was those red tipped bulbs that come with xmas lights to make them blink, how do i do something like that only with this moving thing? there must be something i can do with the on/off mech to make this thing work ideally, i just have NO CLUE what anything is called or where to start looking...i have no skill in this at all, splicing cords together is about all i know how to do (which worked, i extended the little on/off cord by murdering a old set of earphones)

also if i took a pic of the little curicuit board thing would you know what is what (thing is i already glued it in the head) and if you saw it would you maybe know if there is some little doodad i can add or take off to change the speed? it is already glued in the head with the eyes attached to it though....I cannot get it out and would have to cut the faom work to expose it (which i will do if i have to)

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea what i could use!

D:

Getting a photo was easier than i though, thankfully.
now i am a huge noob at stuff like this and feel proud when i can hook up a DVR properly...BUT when i see those little black box things stuck in there i cannot help but wonder if changing those would work....

the yellow cords were the sound box btw

and i can get a more side on photo if needed, this one shows the moving parts though is why i chose it
