For children: Make Snow globes - Napravite kugla sa "snegom"

Lego Snow globes

Kugla sa lego kockicama

Many of us for some reason like snow globes, like look on snow in the water and turn upside-down the globe many times. For all of them or us and for our children here is the way to make our own snow globe. So, stole or borrow some Lego supplies from your children and go to work.

Mnogi od nas iz nekog razloga vole "kugle sa snegom", vole da gledaju sneg u vodi i okrecu gore-dole kuglu vise puta. Za sve njih koji vole ove kugle, ili za sve nas i nasu decu evo nacina da sami napravimo ovakvu kuglu. Dakle, "ukradite" ili pozajmite od vase dece neke Lego kockice i na posao.

You need for this – potrebno vam je:

a jar - tegla

Lego figure and blocks – Lego figurice i blokovi
glitter
Loctite Super Glue
Glycerine (optional) - glicerin
Bathroom sealer (optional)

And ... make a snow globe – i ... napravite kuglu:

- Build your Lego scene. Make sure that it will fit in your jar

Napravite vasu Lego scenu, ali proverite da moze da stane u teglu.

- Sprinkle a teaspoon of glitter into the bottom of the jar. Make sure it’s not the super-fine glitter as this will just float on the top of the water

Sipajte kasicicu sjaja na dno tegle ali ne koristite fini sjaj jer ce ostati na vrhu i nece se pomerati kao sneg.

- Apply Loctite to the bottom of your first piece of Lego (please help your children with this step).

Lepkom zalepite vasu figuricu za poklopac tegle (ovde malo vise pomozite deci da se ne ulepe)

Please note: because your snow globe is submerged in water, the bond may become loose over time.

Napomena: vremenom lepak moze oslabiti zbog vode pa se mora ponovo zalepiti – ovo nam daje priliku da promenimo figuricu i dobijemo novu kuglu ako zelimo

- Press the Lego block firmly to the underside of the jar lid. Allow to dry.

Pritisnite lepo figuricu za poklopac i ostavite da se osusi

- Fill your jar with water right to the brim (you want as little air as possible in your jar). Screw the lid tightly onto the jar. Yay! Job done!

Napunite teglu do vrha vodom (sto manje vazduha da ostane u tegli). Dobro zatvorite teglu i URA posao je gotov. Uzivajte zajedno sa vasom decom u kuglama po vasoj zelji.

TIPS:

- Once you have glued the Lego block into place using Loctite Super Glue you can run waterproof sealer around the rim of the jar if you want to. This will help keep the lid in place and also help create a waterproof seal.

Kada zalepite Lego figuricu za poklopac, mozete lepkom da predjete i preko ivice tegle. To ce osigurati poklopac od otvaranja.

- You can add about a tablespoon of glycerin to the water inside your jar. This will thicken the water so the bits of glitter float more slowly to the bottom.

U vodu mozete dodati kasiku tecnog glicerina. To ce usporiti padanje sjaja.

- For some reason use cooled boiled water it was a lot better than using water straight from the tap. If used water from the tap (hot or cold) glitter will clung to the lego pieces. Using cooled boiled water prevented this from happening!

Iz nekog razloga je bolje uzeti ohladjenu prokuvanu vodu nego vodu direktno iz cesme bilo da je topla ili hladna. Ako se uzme voda iz cesme moguce je da se sjaj lepi za Lego figuricu dok se to ne desava kod prokuvane vode.

- If you are making these with under 3′s then use plastic jars instead.

Ako ovu kuglu pravite za decu mladju od 3 godine napravite je od plasticne tegle.
