About Flight
|
NOTE: These videos are off the cuff. They are not edited (a humility builder). The sound fades in at the start of every one. Use max volume. There may be a slight delay between the video and audio. :( There are a few misspoken words in places. Please correct my words to your child if necessary.
For best results below, play them in order on a computer or tablet. And only do one at a time, then do an activity. It's a lot to sit through.
But First a Caveat (video note to parents about these Airplane/Flight videos)
Bernoulli who? Air, air pressure, lift and wings.
Gravity always brings me down. What a drag.
Balloon vs Jet Engine
Balloon race kit part 1
Balloon air race kit part 2 (Duct tape works better than scotch tape.)
Note: part 3 disappeared. Just run the green string through the straw and tie the string to two different items (chair and shelf or another chair) (same level at first, later try angled strings). Blow up balloon (tricky, since it's now on the string), hold the valve shut until you're ready to race, then let it go!
