Tissue paper streamers (red, orange, yellow).(They’ve even started selling “craft rolls” which are basically TP rolls that have never had TP on them for those who are super icked out at using real TP rolls.) I know there are some people who are really anti-TP rolls in crafts, but this craft can use leftover paper towel roll, wrapping paper roll, or even some rolled cardstock. It would be a great addition to a space unit study (along with our space sensory bin or our space yoga for kids.) ![]() These would look really cool hanging from the ceiling with some string, but my kids just enjoyed zooming around the room with their rockets. (Plus, it was awesome when the parents came for pick up and knew immediately what the crafts were – they usually have to ask or look for me to whisper what we made.) I made a printable that kids can trace and cut out the shapes to help this craft go smoooothly and also helps kids work on their fine motor skills – tracing and cutting, specifically. I helped the younger kids with taping their rocket fins in the right spots and showed them how to assemble the tissue paper rocket flames, but other than that – this craft is super simple for them to make independently. This rocket craft was super easy to do with my crew of 2 and 3 year olds but older kids will enjoy it, too, and be able to add even more personalization to their rockets. ![]() ![]() One of our earliest kid science experiments on the blog was this Straw Rocket experiment, which is still a classic! I wanted to add to our growing collection of Space Activities with a Paper Rocket Craft just in time for the 31 Days of ABCs Challenge. ![]()
