Testing out the Paper Brick

Last week Ben took home one of our damaged paper bricks - it was nearly breaking in half. He took it home to see how long it would take to burn.

Ben told us what he did...

I put the paper brick in the fire. We took some video and photos. We timed how long it took. It took 21 mins to burn. I think a good brick would burn much longer. At the end it was all ash. The flames got bigger as the paper brick burnt.






Thanks to Ben and his whanau for sending us the photos so we could all see the paper bricks burn.

Now we need to decide how much to sell them for? What does your family think? Would you buy some?

    You did a great job testing out these paper bricks Ben.

    We would buy some paper bricks. Lachlan said $8 and Freya said $22. Lachlan's mum and dad thought maybe $2 or $3

    We think these paper bricks are great! I would like to burn one that isn't damaged to see if it burns for longer. I think $2 is a good price. From Ben
