Flying rocket

So, my friend and I have been a little crazy about rockets and space for some time. I mean what’s not to like? There is so much to learn and explore! 

We had been printing out rockets to colour in. There are so many online. Just google, rockets printouts or rockets colouring printouts. So, I thought it would be fun to make a flying rocket. I do have to admit though that I was a lot more excited about the rocket than my friend. But hey. That’s ok.
