Flying Santa Directions
Reduce out the rectangle form, fold it in half and seal the highest and lengthy aspect reverse the fold with tape. This part wants to suit loosely over the straw.
Reduce out the Santa picture and stick it to the folder paper part.
Place Santa on the tip of the straw and blow down the straw. Santa will fly into the air.
Measure how far Santa travels utilizing the ruler. Repeat this 3 occasions, attempting to make use of the identical quantity of power as you blow and level the straw on the identical angle.
Why does Santa fly?
Once you blow air down the straw, it travels to the tip and pushes its method out, taking the Santa rocket with it because it strikes. The more durable you blow into the straw, the extra power the air has, and the additional Santa will fly!
