Marshmallow Shooters

Marshmallow shooters.....need I say more!  These were so much fun, I had to make one for myself. 

You probably have everything on hand to make these......plastic cups, balloons and marshmallows.....that's it.

First cut the bottom of the plastic cup off.....about 2 inches.  

Next take your balloon and cut the top of it off, about an inch and then tie the other end in a knot. Then pull the balloon around the top of the cup so it's nice and tight like I have done below.

Time to launch the marshmallows.....we went in the field behind our house and loaded the marshmallows in.....pull the tied end back so the marshmallow gets in the hole and then let go.....these babies flew!

 
Maddox just used his as a bowl and ate the marshmallows!

It took B awhile to get it figured out, but once he did they were flying and he was having fun. 




 D really got into it.....look at that intensity!


Some of them were squeezing the top and having trouble launching them.....had to help them hold it at the bottom with one hand and pull back with the other. 


 G was trying to launch several at one time.....worked ok, but didn't go as far.


This was a blast.....will definitely pull these out throughout the summer and make sure I always have mini marshmallows on hand to launch and eat!
