This is something I designed for my kindergarten children. Although the idea of using wind power is an old one, it’s great for young children. I used an upside down paper bowl for the base because you can get them from 7/11 in Taiwan. We had lots of thick paper in kindergarten so I simply used it for the rocket and launcher. It really is simple to make and the children love to blow them everywhere. Download the file from my downloads page.

Hi,
I’m missing something here, (most likely very simple) how do you launch them, where do you blow into?
thanks!

There are 2 tubes, one tube fits into the paper dish, that is the launch tube. You place the rocket tube over the launch tube and blow into the launch tube under the paper dish.
