How to make a catapult!

 HI Bloggers,

Today I learnt how to make a catapult. If you are thinking that I made a big catapult then that's wrong because, I made a small one. I learnt it from Nanogirl. It was easy to get all the things you needed. It wasn't actually hard. Its really easy and I know that anyone can make it if they look at this video. I think my next steps are to make something harder. I'd like to know how people make a big catapult. I might use paper to make a tube type cylinder for it next time. Here is my video: Good luck

If you can't get to the video I will write how you can make it. 

What you'll need:

Cardboard tube, A little bit of blue tack, A wooden spoon with a long end, A string a little longer than to spoon, A scrunched piece of paper and a sharpie to make some drawings on the cardboard tube (Optional). 

First get your cardboard tube and your wooden spoon. Put your wooden spoon on top of the cardboard tube. With the string put at the bottom of the tube and bring up into a knot and do that again by flipping it over and doing two knots. Make sure it kind of looks like a cross. The wooden spoon should be sticking out a lot and the end should only have a little bit sticking out. Get your blue tack and put in on the inside of the tube. You can now make some drawings on it but that's your choice. Load your catapult with the scrunched up paper. Put one hand on the blue tack as hard as you can. With your index finger on your other hand you push down on the end of the spoon. There you have made a catapult. 

I hope you had fun making this. Thanks for looking at my blog. Have a good day!
