Readersburg's little COVID scientist shows how to make a hand sanitiser

Covid19 has taken away a lot from this world and it still seems unstoppable. And in the midst of the tragic rush, Readersburg's little thinkers have made themselves busy finding ways to break the untoward trend. Like our little thinker and storyteller, 8-year-old Samrath, totally turned into a scientist during the lockdown and made a sanitiser! So here's Readersburg's little scientist, Samrath, telling us how to make a sanitiser and be safe! 

The story behind it

​

What Samrath has done is not just an innovation. It's a huge step towards social responsibility. 

 

The story goes that when the world was in the first phase of lockdown, news started coming in about shortage of sanitisers in the market, the little bit of the basic essentials market that was allowed to open for a while each day during that phase in the second half of March. 

​

Readersburg's little thinker, and now also a scientist, Samrath, pestered his parents to get him alum and almond oil, the two ingredients that were not already there at home. When the second lot of basic essentials came in during that phase, it included alum and almond oil. By evening that day, the household had a sanitiser while the world was running short of it.

 

His parents used it too. And now Readersburg has used it as well.

 

It's an honour and a relief to see that the change we, at Readersburg, dreamed off and started off with, has taken shape and keeps evolving ever so often as our little thinkers keep at it.

 

So guys, keep rocking it! 

​

With this, here's another opportunity for you to do your big thing! Yet another Story Club meetup.

​

Come back to this space tomorrow morning for your Story Club meetup...yes, yes, online as of now. Because going online is also a form of social responsibility in these extraordinary times. So look forward...
