For our Year 6 forces and motion technology, we made homemade balloon cars. We made these cars out of cardboard for the body, Bottle caps for the wheels and balloons for the power to push the car.
We found it challenging to make the wheels spin and most of all to get the balloon to push air out of the straw.
We found it fun/funny that our car didn't move, but when it did we got super excited and happy.
We encourage you to try this experiment for yourself/your class and see how far your cars can go.
