How does it work?
Just take your students outside to introduce them to a solar energy demonstration using a 50 foot long, black bag that measures nearly 1 meter (3 ft) in diameter. Fill the huge bag with air and allow the energy of the sun to heat the air. Get ready for thunderous applause as the bag begins to levitate off the ground and float high above your head.

Fun with air!
Jane Roscoe - June 14, 2010
We used this kit as an activity at our church picnic. The kids loved them! The large size of the colored air bags made them fun to play with and to put together to make different shapes. The Solar wind bag was slightly more tricky since we started at about noon and it was already pretty warm. But they loved it nonetheless! They kept shooting at it with water guns, which cooled it down somewhat and allowed it to go down, then as it heated up it would rise once again. The space was a little too small to let it truly fly freely using the string. Overall it was a blast. |
