Straw Rockets

Curious kangaroo has a really nifty idea for how to make a rocket out of a bendy straw and paper.  Basically kids decorate blank paper with drawing and wrap them around the straw which they then use to shoot the paper out. 

Good for ages 7 and up.

A little learning for two has a different version.  She simply cuts out two identical patterns and tapes around the straw.
