Send us your questions

Some of our visitors have sent emails with interesting questions, we decided to start having a space to answer them. In this space the blog "Restless Minds" will answer all questions you send us
Send us your question for the email: Restless Minds.

Science progress affects our daily life and "to know" means you are going to chose right, because it allows you to form your own opinion on scientific everyday issues. On the other hand, having an elegant and harmonious vision of the world where we live in leads to a feeling of intellectual satisfaction.
We believe this kind of scientific day to day knowledge should be encouraged from an early age, and that's why this project was born: science, culture, knowledge, crafts for your restless mind.

DIY Cat bell Tambourine- Music for everyone

We alredy did some music here, with the rice shaker. Today we are going to add another instrument to our orchestra, the cat bell tambourine.

This project is easy and it can be very colorful.

What we need:
  • Paper punch,
  • 2 disposable plastic plates, you can use paper ones, if you prefer,
  • Cat bells,
  • Glue, the type depends on you use paper or plastic plates,
  • Ribbon, string works well
  • Large neddle, large enough to the string/ribbon you want to use,
  • Paints and brushes,
  • Varnish.
How to:
  1. Paint the plates, as you wish, eat side down;
  2. Let them dry, 3 hours is more then enough;
  3. Varnish;
  4. Let it dry again;
  5. Glue the plates together, with painted side out;
  6. With the paper punch, punch several holes all around the plate circumference;
  7. Get the ribbon and the cat bells and tie them thru the holes.
You are ready!

Et voilá!
Now you just need to do some music!

Enjoy!
