Parachute Parade

Skydivers rely on parachutes to slow them down as they fall from frightening heights. Parachutes catch air and create drag, a force that works against gravity. Parachutes are usually large and made of lightweight materials, so they create the most drag possible without adding a lot of weight. Hone your engineering skills and create a parachute that helps a small toy figure reach the ground slowly and safely!
