Hi Science Explorers, Long before paper, people had to carve messages into trees or melt wax onto tablets. Talk about slow and sticky! 😅 Then came an ancient game-changer: turning plant fibers into paper. This revolutionized how humans shared stories and knowledge. Here’s how it works: Tear up old paper into small pieces, mix it with warm water to make a pulp, and then spread it across a drying frame. Watch as the water evaporates and the fibers stick together to create brand-new paper! Once your kids are done, challenge them to think of other ways to reuse and recycle in their daily lives. |
