Notes:

Giving each Beaver Scouts approx ¼ of an alka selzer tablet to put in their film cannister rocket add a small amount of water to the cannister, put the lid back on quickly and place them, lid downwards, on the floor.  Depending on much water was put in the rocket and how big the piece of alka selzer was, the rockets will “launch”t off sooner or later, much to the amusement of the Beaver Scouts!!  Don’t stand directly over the rockets watching for them to launch otherwise it will hit you in the face!

 

For the ballisters the same pop bottles can be used more than once though they do get a bit tatty after about 6 – 8 “launches”!
