Candy Airplane

Materials

  • One piece of wrapped chewing gum, any flavor
  • Two peppermint lifesavers, with a center hole
  • Small roll of  candy pieces
  • Rubberband 

Instructions

  1. Fold the rubberband in half.
  2. Thread the two lifesavers onto the middle of the rubberband.
  3. Separate the lifesavers (the wheels) and lay the rolled candy between them.
  4. Now slide the piece of chewing gum into each end of the rubberband for the wings.
  5. If this does not hold securely, your rubberband might be too long.  If it is just slightly long, one solution would be to make several twists before putting the wings on under the plane between the two wheels.
