Fun, easy lab or art project
I use this in my Astronomy/Meteorology unit for a high school science class. They turned out so well, the art teacher asked for a set next time I ordered! Fun and easy.

Best with few kids
I tried these with 8 - five year old children (1 each) and we were done in basically 5 minutes. They designed their pages inside - taped at the top to a small dry erase board - then we took them in the sun. Two minutes in the sun and one minute in cold water, then done! We placed them on the drying rack to dry. There are 12 sheets - so if you had six or less kids it would be a longer experimental time because they could try different items or designs and the project would take longer. They did turn out as expected and darken as they dry.

sun paper was great!
The kids LOVED the sun sensitive paper. Quick, easy even for the littlest child. Just remember to have trays to carry it out to the sun and then to wash pictures with water after back inside. Does have an overnight dry time.

New and great source of acience materials!
As a kid in school I always enjoyed making "sun prints" of objects and learning the science behind why the process worked. Later my students had a similar experience when I taught Physics and Physical Science on the secondary level. However, I began to have considerable difficulty finding a good source of sun sensitive paper so I am thrilled to see Oriental Trading Company having it available at an amazingly low price! Keep up the great work people!!

Works great
Using the clear instructions, this sun-sensitive paper produced images after only two minutes of exposure. Two minutes is a long time for a preschooler, so I gave them magnifying glasses and they ran around the yard looking at things while their creations sat in the sun. They were pretty impressed when they dipped their pictures in water and the images appeared. The hardest part was not letting them overload their pictures with too many items.

Super Cool - for All Ages!
The item blurb says that this activity is good for preschoolers. I am an adult and thoroughly enjoyed making samples for my event. I think just about anyone that enjoys nature & art would enjoy making these prints.

Do they need to covered or protected after to keep from more sun exposure ?. (Can kids carry them home as is)
Orderstuff | June 7th, 2015
  • BEST ANSWER: They need to be covered or the sun exposure will make it all fade. the instructions said after the print is done dip the paper in water and it will seal the print.

I would like to hand out one to two sheets for students to use at home. Is this an option or does the paper need to be protected until ready to use?
JQuinn | March 11th, 2019
  • BEST ANSWER: The paper would need to be protected until use. You would need to put the sheets in an envelope or something so they are not exposed to light.

I’m looking for favors my my son’s science themed birthday party, and I want to know if this can be divided up and sent home with guests. I don’t mind purchasing other materials to include with this to make it work (the description mentioned cardboard), I’m just wanting to know if giving this as favors is feasible. What else would I need to include with this for it to work after they’re sent home with our guests? Is it self-explanatory, or should I include directions in the gift bags?
Kwteach | July 5th, 2018
  • BEST ANSWER: That is a fun idea! They are sun-sensitive so you will want to send each home in light proof black bags or perhaps in between cardboard, and place the directions and maybe some print item ideas (leaves, buttons, etc.) on the outside. Good luck!

Will the process work if we use a flashlight instead of the sun?
