A great project for the school holidays or the whole family😃
With of this handy idea you can make yourself a lovely and fluffy little rug.
This rug is super easy to make.
You will need the following:
🔸Empty toilet rolls
🔸Wool in several different colours
🔸Scissors
🔸An anti-slip bath mat with small holes
Instructions:
🔹Place two toilet rolls together and wrap a good amount of wool around it. Next, use a little bit of wool to wrap between the two toilet rolls and then remove the toilet rolls from the wool.
🔹Tie a knot in the small piece of wool you used to keep the wool together and then cut open the sides of the wool.
🔹Use the scissors to trim the wool so it forms a nice round ball.
🔹Get out the anti slip bath mat and tie the ball to it.
🔹Repeat this process until the entire bath mat is covered in woollen balls like in the picture above
Once you’ve tied all of these woollen balls to the bath mat, you’ve got yourself a super cute rug!
See video as well is the above instructions seem a bit confusing.
Also there a few other ideas on the side panel of the video.:

Even Australians get it - so why not Kiwis???
“Ten years ago, if a heatwave as intense as last week’s record-breaker had hit the east coast, Australia’s power supply may well have buckled. But this time, the system largely operated as we needed, despite some outages.
On Australia’s main grid last quarter, renewables and energy storage contributed more than 50% of supplied electricity for the first time, while wholesale power prices were more than 40% lower than a year earlier.
[…] shifting demand from gas and coal for power and petrol for cars is likely to deliver significantly lower energy bills for households.
Last quarter, wind generation was up almost 30%, grid solar 15% and grid-scale batteries almost tripled their output. Gas generation fell 27% to its lowest level for a quarter century, while coal fell 4.6% to its lowest quarterly level ever.
Gas has long been the most expensive way to produce power. Gas peaking plants tend to fire up only when supply struggles to meet demand and power prices soar. Less demand for gas has flowed through to lower wholesale prices.”

If even Australians see the benefit of solar - then why is NZ actively boycotting solar uptake? The increased line rental for electricity was done to make solar less competitive and prevent cost per kWh to rise even more than it did - and electricity costs are expected to rise even more. Especially as National favours gas - which is the most expensive form of generating electricity. Which in turn will accelerate Climate Change, as if New Zealand didn’t have enough problems with droughts, floods, slips, etc. already.
Time to Tickle Your Thinker 🧠
If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?
