Christmas STEM Activities
Start by setting up your race track.
We set ours up between chairs, 2 for each track.
Pull the chairs apart until the string is taut.
Repeat for each track.
TIP!These balloons are going to go really fast.
Aim for a long track.
Ours was 8 feet long and it seemed way too short.
The races were over, it seemed, before they even started.
I would aim for 15 feet or longer if you have the space.
TIP 2!confirm your string is level.
Next prepare your Rudolf balloons by decorating them.
We went with stickers for the eyes, red pompom for the nose and some construction paper antlers.
They looked a little like an Angry Birds version of Rudolf, but the kids loved it!
Carefully remove the clip or clamp, keeping the end pinched between your fingers.
Start the countdown…3 2 1 RACE!
Let go of the balloons and watch as the Rudolfs race to the end!
My kids thought this part was hilarious!
Trust me, your kids will love thissimple physics experiment for kids!
When you blow up the balloon you are filling it up with air that is under pressure.
The air escapes backward the balloon races forward.
