A Blast Off Experiment!

This is one my favorite experiments! Find a grown up and get them to help you, they will have fun too! 
Of course baking soda and vinegar always make a lot of fun.
This experiment shows you how to make a canister rocket. Its very easy! You can get the canister by asking the photo department at Walgreens or CVS if they have any you can have. They usually have a few to give you. Make sure they give you the lid also. Since the rocket will be shooting up, goggles are suggested to protect your eyes. You can usually find these at most dollar stores and is a good idea if you are going to be a scientist this summer! Let me know how it works for you!
