Air Powered Rocket Launcher

Posted 2014-06-14 by Sarah Bfollow
This easy to make rocket launcher will give kids hours of fun as they blow through the straw to launch their rockets.

Make two for fun rocket challenges. You can see which rocket will travel the furthest distance and which rocket will get the most air.

This is also a great activity for kids who need to practice blowing as part of speech therapy exercises, because they do it without knowing they're practicing!
