Continuing our studies in Ancient Civilization we learned about Papyrus. We watched some YouTube videos on the topic which we found to be very interesting. After gaining much knowledge we decided to make our own papyrus paper by using wrapping paper. It was a messy job but the boys enjoyed the process.

Wow. That looks so interesting and we all like to be messy sometimes.

ReplyDeletewhat are the ingredients you used?
ReplyDeleteStrips of paper dipped in a mixture of one cup of flour mixed with two cups of water. Making sure to remove all excessive glue off of the strips before weaving.
