Water Wheel

Great fun for those summery backyard days!
  • Step 1 Glue two paper plates together back to back and allow to dry. You might like to staple them together for extra support! 
  • Step 2 Next, tape four paper cups around the outside of the plates, slipping them in between the two plates.
  • Step 3 Paint or decorate your water wheel and allow to dry.
  • Step 4 Push a skewer through the centre of your paper plates. This will be your handle to hold while the water wheel spins! Pour water into one of the cups and watch it start to spin!
