push button delay?

hello all!

i was wondering, is it possible to make a delay with a push button?

this is what i actually wanted:

when i press the push button, a running led will run for 3 sec.

this is what i have:

i will need to press the push button(forever!!) for the led to run. once i let go. the circuit will switch off.

help anyone?
thank you

accruacy is not really important. but if use cap must charge it rite? means must hold the push button for a few sec rite?

im actually doing a game. here how it suppose to work.

a ball will be thrown into a "funnel" if "hit" the led will running led will light up. something like that.

thanks
