GaltToys, Horrible Science - Shocking Rocket, Science Kit for Kids, Ages 6 Years Plus

The bottle is very small so only makes a very small rocket. Better to print some instructions off the internet & make one with a large pop bottle. Sainsbury’s have a good one with instructions of their site, just search make a rocket with a pop bottle.

We had great success with this rocket - managed to get it to fire to the height of the house multiple times! Did cringe at one point thinking we should have thought about health and safety at one point when the rocket fell over as my son was pumping using a bike track pump, but all was well! Great fun for everyone!

VERY easy to make - took my 5 year old less than 10 minutes without any support! Was hoping for something to take up a bit more home learning time!Not particularly hardy, won’t last too many ‘blast offs’ but fun nevertheless!

It’s essentially a small bottle with a cork and pump adapter. Expensive for what it is

We have had so so so much fun with this rocket, it's a great concept and actually works really well. My only disappointment is the quality, after crashing back down to the ground a handful of times the bottle is mis-shapen and battered, the stickers have all peeled off and the red spikes at the bottom are forever being stuck back in place. If this was slightly more durable it would be brilliant.
