Having a decorative windmill is not only eye catching, it can be a nice distraction for the children to play around. Creating a paper-windmill is a very easy job. They show the principles of a real windmill and it is enjoyable to see them turning in the wind or by blowing on them. Children can make them by themselves, just by cutting in the right way a piece of squared paper, and ding some wrapping by making an “X” through the paper, and by supplying it with a tall, thick stick to it. It can be colored in hundreds of creative ways.

Windmills have lately become a very common decoration in everybody’s yard (that is, everybody who has a yard big enough to hold a decorative windmill, that is) all over the world, as people have fun watching the forces of nature acting over a small, colorful, hand-made ornament, with a big history and tradition behind it. A great side benefit of having a decorative windmill is that it can produce some electricity as well and save on power costs.
