Beating the Heat... Our Summer Fun with Marshmallow Catapults

When I saw the instructions for this on itsalwaysautumn.com, I knew my kiddos would love it!  We made them today and they were easy and fun.

What you need...

1. Large or jumbo marshmallows
2. Plastic spoons
3. Rubber bands
4. Tape
5. Skewers
6. Something to launch (m&m's, small marshmallows, marbles, etc....)

What to do...

First make your base with 3 skewers and 3 marshmallows...

 

 

Next add the top of your pyramid using 3 more skewers and 1 more marshmallow...

 



Tape the spoon to a skewer.  Put 1 rubber band over the marshmallow on the top, so that it goes just under it.  Put the spoon/skewer through the rubber band and in to a marshmallow...

 

 

Have fun launching stuff!!
