Gi-Joe Missle


New! I've come out with the G.I. Joe missile! You will need cardboard, 2 sheets of paper, scissors, crayons, an empty caulk tube, and tape/glue. Instructions: cover caulk tube with 1 sheet of paper. cut 1 sheet of paper into a half circle and make into a cone. Cut cardboard for the rocket fins and tape on. (As shown) Then decorate yours! Have fun making your own missile...but be careful not to bomb the G.I. Joe base!

One of my simple projects

Here is how to build a simple rocket from recyclable materials. Here's what you will need: an empty toilet paper roll, a cleaned out sonic vanilla dish, construction paper, and markers. This is how it should turn out:

Instructions: cover vanilla dish with paper. Glue toilet paper roll to dish. Cut construction paper into small strips, then tape the strips to the bottom of the toilet paper roll to look like the rocket is taking off. I cut a long piece of fishing line and threaded it through the middle of the rocket, then tied at the top so I could hang it from a shelf. This makes the rocket look like it is flying.

Congratulations! You have finished your rocket.
