Make paper rockets at the UW Space Place Saturday

July 7, 2010

Learn how to make paper rockets at 10 a.m. on Saturday, July 10th in a family-friendly event at the UW Space Place, 2300 South Park Street.

Space Place family workshops are offered every Saturday at 10 a.m. for children ages 6-10 and their parents. The workshops are free and open to the public. No registration is required.

If you can’t attend this workshop, don’t despair. Madison on the Cheap loves paper craft projects and we’ve found some nifty websites and blogs for those of you who want to try your hand at making paper rockets:

The Rocketry Blog: Ultimate Paper Rocket Guide
Paper Tiger by Peter Galindez
NASA: High-Power Paper Rockets

As always, Izzy the Intern wants to remind you to “Have fun, but be careful: Craft knives and scissors are not children’s toys.”
