Friday Fun! Are Your Kids Missing STEM at School? Create a Catapult!
April 17, 2020
What you’ll need:
- 10 Craft Sticks
- 3 Rubber Bands
- Bottle Cap (we used one from a gallon of milk)
- Glue
- Pom Poms
Steps:
1. Stack two sticks together and rubber band one end.
2. Stack two more sticks and put the sticks from Step 1 on top of them like a lowercase T.
3. Open the sticks from Step 1 (like the letter V) and place six sticks in between. Rubber band all eight sticks at both ends.
4. Glue the bottle cap to the top stick and let dry.
5. Grab some pom poms and see how far they can go! Don’t point it at anyone!
6. Want even more fun? Make two catapults and see who can shoot the pom poms the farthest!
