Sounds fun, right? Well, they definitely are. Last year, my sister Amelia and I tried them out and they really took off. We ended up having most of the kids in the neighbourhood come over and play with us, which was fun.
This year—today, actually—I'm going to suggest to my science teacher that we make them for a class project—and then watch them blast off while the weather is still nice.
Just like this:
BLAST OFF!
Amazing, right? They're pretty easy too. All you need is an empty film canister (or something about the same size), corn starch, a black Sharpie, Alka Seltzer, and a stir stick.
Start by drawing ghost faces on your canister.
Once the ghost face is dry, add some corn starch to each, and then fill about ⅓ of the way with water. Stir it up.
Take a piece of Alka Seltzer and break it into three or four pieces. Drop a piece into the canister, put the lid on, and flip it upside down. Set it on the ground and stand back!
For the full directions, click here to see the original Pinterest post. And don't forget to post pictures of your ghost faces. The spookier the better!
Gotta jet! Have a creeptastic day.
