Get spin from 5x helicopters with the flip of a fan switch.
Tips
- Give time for the fan to stop between rounds
- Place helicopters at tips of the fan blades
- Grab by the top “rotor” paper section to place the heavier paperclip side down
- Assign the least impulsive child to the switch
Individual Drops
Use the trash grapper for flying the helicopter higher than child-height. Hold the helicopter itself to give the child a turn operating the grapper to extend their reach.
Alternatively, use an open stairwell as a school STEM Night activity.

Print onto regular weight paper for easier folding. Cut along solid lines. If you can reliably get children to do this…let me know in the comments.
