Are you ready for some football?! Make these awesome popsicle stick football catapults for your residents to have a kickoff of their own! ??

You Will Need:

• Popsicle Sticks
• Rubber Bands
• Pom Poms
• Scissors
• E6000 Glue (Available at Wal-mart)

Making the Field Goal:

1. To make the field goal you will need approximately 6 popsicle sticks, scissors and E6000 glue available at Wal-mart. Start by making an “X” with two popsicle sticks. Add a dab of glue to the center and allow time to fully dry.

2. Next, with your scissors, cut the rounded tip off of one end of a single popsicle stick.

3. With the popsicle stick you just cut, add a dab of glue to the end that’s been trimmed and attach it to the center of the “X” you glued together earlier.

4. Using 3 more popsicle sticks, create a “U” shape and glue together.

5. Now that we’ve made the field goal and its stand, we can finally attach them together! Using a dab of glue, attach the two pieces together.

Making the Catapult:

1. To make the catapult, you’ll need approximately 7 popsicle sticks, 6 rubber bands and a plastic spoon. Start by stacking 5 popsicle sticks together and securing them with a rubber band on either end.

2. Next, add a popsicle stick to the top and bottom, perpendicular to the stack of 5 popsicle sticks. Secure with two rubber bands in the middle to make an “X”.

3. Now, pinch down your two sticks on one end and secure with a rubber band.

4. Finally, lay your plastic spoon on top of the two sticks that are pinched together. Secure with a rubber band or two.
