They’re so fun to use with painting and often come in handy for various science activities- like with our color arrays. (We love having a stash of plastic pipettes at home. Cut the bottom off a plastic pipette and attach it to the back of a rocket using tape or glue dots.

Straw Rocket Science Activity for Kids with Free Printable Kids can compare how different angles of the straw affect the distance the rocket travels or how adding fins or folding the rocket in different ways can affect its flight. This activity makes a great science exploration and is perfect for the classroom. The kids loved seeing how far they could get their straw rockets to go and had fun trying them out at all different angles. The kids and I designed our own rockets and launched them using straws! This activity was definitely a hit with both Lucy (age 7) and Theo (age 3 1/2). This project makes a great addition to a unit on physics, space, the night sky, or things that fly and is also just fun to do on a rainy day!Ī reader, Lisa, suggested a great children’s book to go with this activity: The Darkest Dark by Chris Hadfield. Here’s an easy way to make straw rockets using just a few materials.
