Science experiments for children – tea bag rocket. Be careful where you do it! Perform with an adult.
When the tea bag is burned, it is filled with hot air, and when the hot air rises, it carries the tea bag upwards, in a similar way to the functioning of ballooning.
We have tried the experiment, and the first attempts have failed.
By changing a few different types of tea bag, we found those that fly. The experiment lasts a few seconds and is beautiful.
