homemade funnels

For Grace's Science experiment, every kid needed a funnel so that they could pour both the oil and water in. We did not want to run out and buy 10-15 funnels, so we did some experimenting at home. Believe it or not, paper will work with liquids 1-2 times before it is toast. The picture you see here are little sticky notes made into funnels. Things we would do different: Grace and I would make the funnels larger, and cut the hole larger as well. All you do is cut out a circle, make one radius cut (from circles edge to middle), overlap cut edges, and trim off the tip to make the hole. temporary, but cost-effective.
