A copper coil, a magnet, and a repetitive source of motion is not that hard. You'd have to go really far back not to have access to a mill, and even if you did, it wouldn't be that hard to invent a hand crank. The question is how you make the electricity useful. I think a simple heating element is probably the best option. Show them the river cooking their food, and the benefits should be obvious
