Ghost Rockets For Halloween Fun!!--Science Experiments

As usual I am always going to find something fun to do. Of course that something would have to including lighting an object on fire. Don't worry, though, this is all in good scientific fun, and let's be honest, you are not a scientist unless you set something on fire!!!!

This btw is very kid friendly so don't shy away just because of the fire

SO this experiment is making little ghost rockets in honor of the season of Halloween that is quickly approaching. If it looks fun to you, then I have great news. It's a blast. I have never had more fun sending pieces of ash up into the air than I have doing this experiment. So here is everything you need.

• Teabags (the thicker the bag the better it will work)
• Sharpie or marks a lot
• Scissors
• matches or lighter
• a plate (or solid non-flammable surface)

start by cutting open your tea bags where the fold meet at the top. Once cut, empty the package of all tea leaf material. (You dont want that stuff burning!!)

Time to draw on the faces, Use you sharpie to create whatever you like, spooky face or not. 

Once that is done place it on the plate or non-flammable surface and light it up.

Your Ghost should take off into the air and extinguish itself right before your eyes!!!

It is something to see to believe and it is so fun you will want to do it again and again. Trust me I know I am an adult man and I could not get enough of this!! Who needs tea anyway (unless you are a Brit)

To be fair, I did use my least favorite tea packages. Check out the video below for my instructions and a demonstration.
