Hello Steemains! Welcome! Recycling means using something again to transform it into something new. This beautiful day we will learn how to make recycled paper, using a practical and simple technique. So I invite you to enjoy this proposal where the little ones can go, little by little, approaching the artistic work and learning a very different way of reusing paper, accompanied by their teachers and parents.
What are they waiting for?
This activity will help children develop their fine motor skills, mental agility, and creative freedom, learning through the creation of a new sheet of paper that originated from waste that, in general, others consider trash. Have fun while doing your homework!
MY RECYCLED PAPER
Materials:
- Newspaper.
- Water.
- Starch.
- Container.
- Blender.
- Strainer.
- Roller.
- Scissors cut (cutter).
Process
Step 1. Break some newspaper sheets into small pieces and place them in a container of water.
Step 2. In another bowl, dissolve one tablespoon of starch and add two cups of water. Then add the mixture to the sheets of paper, letting it stand for two hours.
Step 3. After spending the required time, mix the paper in the blender and add water until it has a smooth dough.
Step 4. Insert a mesh or strainer into the bottom of the container and wait a moment. Then, slowly remove the strainer and wait for the water to drain properly.
Step 5. Turn the strainer over blotting paper and cover the mixture with another blotter.
Step 6. Press with a roller to remove excess water.
Step 7. Let the paper dry, remove the blotting paper and finally match the edges with a pair of scissors.
My recycled paper
Now you know how to make your own recycled paper, giving utility and a new opportunity to the various waste papers that we generate in our environment, through recycling.
Thank you all for accompanying me in this fantastic and perfect exercise for the development of children's creativity. With this fun series of steps, you can have a good time with the little ones in the house, help them in their physical and mental development, and teach them to work in an organized manner, which will allow them to expand their concentration and observation techniques. to help them understand their environment.
