FOR PREPARING SPECIAL DRINK
Children can make measuring spoons from
many things. But it is important that they
measure roughly the right amounts of sugar
and salt.
Here is one way to make spoons, using
things that have been thrown away.
1. Cut a juice
or beer can
to this
shape. (It is
easy with
scissors.)
Make this part as wide as a pencil
is thick.
HOW TO MAKE
{ SPECIAL DRINK
Put 1 heaping
and 1 little
bottle cap of
spoon of
SUGAR
SALT
2. Wrap this part tightly around a pencil.
3. In the middle of a
bottle cap make
a small cut.
in a medium-sized glass
of WATER and mix well.
4. Join the pieces
and bend over the tabs.
Give the child 1 glass of
SPECIAL DRINK for each time
he makes diarrhea.
(Instead of a
glass, you can
use a juice or
beer can nearly
full of water.)
Before giving this
SPECIAL DRINK,
taste it to be sure
it is no saltier than tears.
