Inspirado por la Naturaleza (Biomímesis) Activity for Kids

Zapato Impermeable DIY

  • Duration: 15-20 min
  • Difficulty: Fácil
  • Cost: $0 a $5

¡Haz un zapato impermeable con una idea de la naturaleza!

Material List

  • 1Par de zapatos de lona viejos (necesitas el permiso de un adulto)
  • 1Vela
  • 1Secadora de pelo
  • 1Jarra de agua
  • 1Tina de plástico grande

Instructions

  • 1Frota la vela de un lado a otro por toda la superficie de un zapato.
  • 2Pídele a un adulto que te ayude a usar una secadora de pelo para derretir la cera de la vela sobre el zapato.
  • 3Para obtener los mejores resultados, repite este proceso una o dos veces más.
  • 4Sostén el zapato tratado sobre un recipiente poco profundo y vierte agua suavemente sobre él.
  • 5A continuación, toma el zapato sin tratar y vierte agua sobre él para ver la diferencia.

How It Works

El zapato tratado tiene una capa especial de cera que protege el zapato para no mojarse. Esto es similar a la planta de capuchina en el video o las plumas de un pato. Cuando vaciaste agua en el zapato tratado, el agua simplemente se deslizó. El zapato sin tratar se mojó cuando echaste agua. El hecho de inspirarse por la naturaleza para resolver un problema se llama biomimetismo.
