While at the library, we found a cool book of at-home science experiments, including how to make a full size hovercraft. Since we didn’t quite have all the materials for that, Lauren settled for making a mini version out of an old Care Bears CD, a water bottle top and a balloon. The part where the balloon had to be blown up through the CD hole and water bottle top was a little challenging.
The short videos below show how the hovercraft ended up being like air hockey.
