STEM at Home — Balloon Rocket Science Kit
Launch rockets powered by nothing but air — and learn the same physics that sends spacecraft to the moon. Pairs directly with EdTech Academy's Workshop 3: Forces & Motion — Balloon Rockets & Newton's Laws (July STEM Workshops 2026).
Students build balloon-powered rocket tracks, run controlled experiments changing one variable at a time, and discover Newton's Third Law of Motion in action. Multiple balloons included for multiple launch attempts.
Kit includes:
Long balloons (6 assorted)
Nylon string (15 feet)
Plastic straws (4)
Masking tape (small roll)
Measuring tape (10 ft)
Data recording sheet
Instruction card with experiment guide
Grades K–8 · Pairs with July Workshop 3 · Ships in 2–3 days
