Making Paper

The girls got a paper making science project for Christmas, so we decided to try it out.

Step 1: Tear newspaper and soak it for two hours.

Step 2: Spin the soaked newspaper, to extract the pulp.


Step 3: Sift the pulp in water to spread it out evenly.


Step 4: Our final product, lay out to completely dry for 4 hours.


Final step: Have your grandfather think it is a bunch of junk and throw it out on you.
That is right! We never got to use the paper, Papa threw it out. Four hours later we went looking for it and it was gone! So, we will need to try this again when mommy has patience!
