Mini Marshmallow Shooter


Mini Marshmallow Shooter

Take a large disposable cup (I used Solo) and cut off the bottom.
Cut the top section off of a large balloon and knot the end just like you do when you normally blow it up.  The cheap balloons don't work.
Put the cut part of the balloon over the cut part of the cup.  Duct tape the edges of the balloon so it is tight onto the cup.  Put a mini marshmallow into the balloon so it falls down into the balloon near the knot.  Pull the knot back and let the marshmallow shoot out.  This also works well with acorn tops and other small objects.
My kids had so much fun with these outside trying to find all the things that would shoot well, and seeing who could shoot something the farthest.  Just make sure you mention that they are not allowed to shoot each other.  Or their mother -Haha!
