00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,569
(Upbeat music)

2
00:00:11,011 --> 00:00:12,812
- Oh, hello friends.

3
00:00:12,812 --> 00:00:13,646
Welcome back.

4
00:00:13,646 --> 00:00:16,182
This is Amaranta Sandys.

5
00:00:16,182 --> 00:00:21,187
Today I'm gonna show you
how to do this pinwheel.

6
00:00:21,187 --> 00:00:23,857
Did you know that some 
toys, like this one,

7
00:00:23,857 --> 00:00:25,992
do not require any batteries?

8
00:00:25,992 --> 00:00:30,063
This is something that I used 
to play with when I was a kid.

9
00:00:30,063 --> 00:00:31,097
Same with kite.

10
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:36,136
We're gonna use very, very few supplies,

11
00:00:36,136 --> 00:00:37,904
probably stuff that you will find around

12
00:00:37,904 --> 00:00:40,273
your mom's and your dad's house.

13
00:00:40,273 --> 00:00:42,575
Just a printer paper,

14
00:00:42,575 --> 00:00:43,610
markers,

15
00:00:43,610 --> 00:00:45,145
rulers,

16
00:00:45,145 --> 00:00:46,980
scissors,

17
00:00:46,980 --> 00:00:49,716
a pencil that has a good amount of eraser

18
00:00:49,716 --> 00:00:51,851
because we're gonna try to,

19
00:00:51,851 --> 00:00:54,487
because the pinwheel is gonna live in here

20
00:00:54,487 --> 00:00:56,556
and push pin.

21
00:00:56,556 --> 00:01:00,493
And make sure to ask for help whenever

22
00:01:00,493 --> 00:01:03,630
you're gonna assemble
this into your pencil.

23
00:01:03,630 --> 00:01:06,332
So the first thing you're gonna do,

24
00:01:06,332 --> 00:01:10,170
you are going to measure a square,

25
00:01:10,170 --> 00:01:11,137
six by six.

26
00:01:11,137 --> 00:01:13,139
I'm only gonna measure right here,

27
00:01:14,074 --> 00:01:15,175
just to show you.

28
00:01:16,042 --> 00:01:20,747
I found that measuring it
is extremely important too,

29
00:01:20,747 --> 00:01:22,615
because some of the
kids that I worked with,

30
00:01:22,615 --> 00:01:25,251
they still have a little
bit of a hard time.

31
00:01:25,251 --> 00:01:27,687
So I have my square in here,

32
00:01:27,687 --> 00:01:29,022
it is ready to go.

33
00:01:30,390 --> 00:01:33,493
And we are gonna try to
find the center of this

34
00:01:33,493 --> 00:01:35,628
and a trick to that

35
00:01:35,628 --> 00:01:36,463
is that

36
00:01:36,463 --> 00:01:39,599
if you place your ruler

37
00:01:39,599 --> 00:01:41,835
corner to corner,

38
00:01:41,835 --> 00:01:45,472
and then you're gonna
draw a diagonal line,

39
00:01:45,472 --> 00:01:50,477
and then you're gonna do
the same on the other side,

40
00:01:50,510 --> 00:01:53,613
that is going to be the
center of your pinwheel.

41
00:01:53,613 --> 00:01:56,449
It took just like seconds to do that.

42
00:01:56,449 --> 00:01:58,685
Then the next thing you're gonna do,

43
00:01:58,685 --> 00:02:01,688
you are going to bring your ruler

44
00:02:01,688 --> 00:02:05,158
and you're gonna measure two inches

45
00:02:05,158 --> 00:02:07,293
from the middle outside,

46
00:02:09,028 --> 00:02:10,730
middle and outside,

47
00:02:10,730 --> 00:02:13,600
and then just place a little dot.

48
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,702
And I'm using a different color because

49
00:02:15,702 --> 00:02:18,805
I wanna make sure that
you are not gonna go

50
00:02:18,805 --> 00:02:21,074
you are not gonna cut all the way here.

51
00:02:21,074 --> 00:02:22,609
I'm gonna place another line.

52
00:02:24,277 --> 00:02:25,545
If for some reason you cut it,

53
00:02:25,545 --> 00:02:27,580
then you can do it again.

54
00:02:30,049 --> 00:02:32,418
So the next thing we're gonna do,

55
00:02:32,418 --> 00:02:34,888
we are going to decorate this.

56
00:02:34,888 --> 00:02:36,456
You can leave it white.

57
00:02:37,323 --> 00:02:38,391
You could,

58
00:02:38,391 --> 00:02:40,160
if you have origami paper,

59
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,929
I found that you can use
origami paper to do this.

60
00:02:42,929 --> 00:02:44,564
They got some beautiful patterns,

61
00:02:44,564 --> 00:02:47,634
but if you like to create your own things,

62
00:02:47,634 --> 00:02:50,870
then just use your own designs.

63
00:02:50,870 --> 00:02:53,006
I wanna introduce you
to something very quick,

64
00:02:53,006 --> 00:02:55,108
and this are just the lines

65
00:02:55,108 --> 00:02:57,110
that you are gonna come up with a design,

66
00:02:57,110 --> 00:02:59,345
maybe pick one or two lines,

67
00:02:59,345 --> 00:03:00,180
horizontal,

68
00:03:00,180 --> 00:03:01,347
vertical, diagonal,

69
00:03:01,347 --> 00:03:02,515
broken, zig zag,

70
00:03:02,515 --> 00:03:03,783
curvy, spiral.

71
00:03:03,783 --> 00:03:05,885
You can combine one or two,

72
00:03:05,885 --> 00:03:08,054
and then you can also

73
00:03:08,054 --> 00:03:10,857
do your designs with

74
00:03:10,857 --> 00:03:12,258
a pencil first

75
00:03:12,258 --> 00:03:13,593
in case you mess up.

76
00:03:13,593 --> 00:03:16,529
But I wanna go straight
and I just wanna do,

77
00:03:16,529 --> 00:03:20,433
maybe I want to start
with some curvy lines,

78
00:03:20,433 --> 00:03:22,268
just like the water, it's calm.

79
00:03:24,103 --> 00:03:28,208
And maybe I wanna add a
second one on top, why not?

80
00:03:30,877 --> 00:03:31,911
And,

81
00:03:32,845 --> 00:03:35,648
you could maybe add,

82
00:03:35,648 --> 00:03:38,551
you can fill in the color, or not,

83
00:03:38,551 --> 00:03:40,920
or maybe you wanna do some lines in here.

84
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,723
I'm just gonna do this just

85
00:03:44,691 --> 00:03:45,592
so it shows

86
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:47,327
a little bit of the design.

87
00:03:47,327 --> 00:03:49,662
You can spend a lot of
time doing these designs,

88
00:03:49,662 --> 00:03:52,065
but I'm just gonna leave it this way.

89
00:03:53,266 --> 00:03:54,801
Then the next thing I'm gonna do,

90
00:03:54,801 --> 00:03:56,302
I'm gonna cut this,

91
00:03:56,302 --> 00:03:58,371
started from the corner and make sure

92
00:03:58,371 --> 00:04:00,974
to stop where the red dot is.

93
00:04:02,475 --> 00:04:03,309
One,

94
00:04:04,210 --> 00:04:05,044
two,

95
00:04:06,446 --> 00:04:07,814
three

96
00:04:07,814 --> 00:04:08,648
and four.

97
00:04:10,883 --> 00:04:13,886
And then the next thing I'm gonna do,

98
00:04:13,886 --> 00:04:16,356
I'm going to flip it over

99
00:04:16,356 --> 00:04:18,458
and I'm gonna pierce the middle.

100
00:04:18,458 --> 00:04:21,861
I'm gonna pierce the center of this,

101
00:04:23,763 --> 00:04:25,231
then with another marker,

102
00:04:25,231 --> 00:04:26,933
just because I wanna make sure you

103
00:04:26,933 --> 00:04:29,035
understand how is assembled.

104
00:04:29,035 --> 00:04:32,338
I'm gonna place a dot on this side,

105
00:04:32,338 --> 00:04:33,339
on the right side,

106
00:04:33,339 --> 00:04:34,207
and I'm going to turn it.

107
00:04:34,207 --> 00:04:37,110
So the thought it's on the same side

108
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:38,978
on your right side.

109
00:04:41,147 --> 00:04:45,985
If I want this design to be
the inside of my pinwheel,

110
00:04:45,985 --> 00:04:48,021
just like this one,

111
00:04:49,322 --> 00:04:51,557
then I need to start from the back.

112
00:04:51,557 --> 00:04:55,161
So I'm gonna grab my pinwheel from behind

113
00:04:55,161 --> 00:04:58,298
and I'm gonna pierce it
through the first one,

114
00:04:59,299 --> 00:05:01,134
the second

115
00:05:01,134 --> 00:05:02,068
corner,

116
00:05:03,136 --> 00:05:04,037
the third

117
00:05:05,104 --> 00:05:05,938
corner,

118
00:05:07,974 --> 00:05:09,242
the fourth.

119
00:05:12,545 --> 00:05:14,547
And once you're on the fourth,

120
00:05:14,547 --> 00:05:17,817
you probably need some small fingers,

121
00:05:17,817 --> 00:05:20,887
'cause you need to find the center of

122
00:05:22,121 --> 00:05:23,623
pinwheel.

123
00:05:23,623 --> 00:05:24,457
Voila!

124
00:05:25,992 --> 00:05:27,794
Then you're gonna grab your pencil.

125
00:05:27,794 --> 00:05:29,529
You can either pierce it right here

126
00:05:29,529 --> 00:05:30,730
or pierce it on the side.

127
00:05:30,730 --> 00:05:32,999
I'm gonna try to do it on the side.

128
00:05:32,999 --> 00:05:34,934
Be careful.

129
00:05:34,934 --> 00:05:37,570
Make sure to leave some spaces right here,

130
00:05:37,570 --> 00:05:40,973
because I wanna make sure this spins.

131
00:05:40,973 --> 00:05:42,608
If it's too tight,

132
00:05:42,608 --> 00:05:44,077
it's not gonna blow.

133
00:05:44,077 --> 00:05:45,178
But if you

134
00:05:46,412 --> 00:05:48,114
pull it out little bit,

135
00:05:48,114 --> 00:05:50,016
spins so I'm trying.

136
00:05:50,016 --> 00:05:52,418
Give it a try to see if it works.

137
00:05:52,418 --> 00:05:55,488
(blows the pinwheel)

138
00:05:57,056 --> 00:05:58,024
There you go.

139
00:05:58,024 --> 00:06:01,494
So make a pinwheel for
all your family members,

140
00:06:01,494 --> 00:06:03,196
put on behind your bike,

141
00:06:03,196 --> 00:06:05,365
or just run around on a windy day,

142
00:06:05,365 --> 00:06:08,368
and they will work really well.

143
00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:10,536
So thank you again for watching.

144
00:06:10,536 --> 00:06:12,338
I hope you liked this tutorial

145
00:06:12,338 --> 00:06:14,073
and I will see you soon.

146
00:06:14,073 --> 00:06:14,907
Thank you.

147
00:06:14,907 --> 00:06:15,742
Bye.

148
00:06:16,609 --> 00:06:21,047
(upbeat bright music)

149
00:06:41,167 --> 00:06:47,073
(upbeat music)
