The paper wonders

For pupils of 1–5 grades.

Do you know how the paper appeared? It’s difficult to imagine, that people lived without this material someday. And now just take a look and you’ll see plenty of paper items around. And first of all, these are books. They are an indispensable part of pupils’ lives. How can you describe them? Interesting, with pictures, of different weight and size… And made of paper. Kids will learn, what materials were used to create a book and where paper was created; when the first European paper producing workrooms appeared and why they were built near rivers. Young visitors will be able to tell what items are made of paper today and how they are used daily, and will make a paper toy.
