DIY Straw Rockets (12 Pack)

Straw Rockets make hands-on science exciting with pre-printed rockets, droppers, and straws that launch for playful motion and learning.

Launch Creativity and Motion Fun in One Craft

Straw Rockets bring physics, motion, and imagination together in a simple launch craft that kids can decorate and launch over and over. The pre-printed rocket designs take the guesswork out of decorating while still allowing personalization with color, accents, or labels.

Each rocket kit includes droppers and straws, so kids can experiment with air pressure and launch distance. When kids blow into the straw, the rocket shoots forward, giving immediate motion results that make science feel like play.

This project works especially well for STEM units, summer camps, after-school science labs, and rainy-day activities where interactive learning keeps attention high and participation enthusiastic.
