You just never know when you're going to need to toss an egg or a toy soldier into the air, and have it land safely. For those times, you will need a little toy parachute. Here's how to make one.
StepsMake the canopy. Cut out an 16 inch (40 cm) hexagon out of a heavy-duty trash bag or paper grocery bag.
Make holes for the lines. With a paper punch, scissors, or hobby knife, cut small holes near the point of each of the 6 corners of the hexagon.
Attach the lines. Cut 6 16 to 20-inch pieces of string, slide the end of each string through the holes, and tie them to the parachute securely.
Build the holder. For your parachute to work, you need to have a weight at the bottom. You can tie the strings to a washer, or you can attach a small paper or plastic cup and put whatever you like inside. We'll use a large washer to illustrate this example.
Mark the washer. Using your sharpie, write the numbers 1 to 6 clockwise around the washer, so that they match the numbers on the chute.
Tie the lines. Take a line from the chute and tie it to the matching number on the washer.
Repeat for all 6 lines.
Make sure that there are no twists or tangles in the strings. If there are, untie one string and take out the tangle.
Try it out. After your toy parachute is finished, you could go upstairs to the veranda or balcony, and drop it to see your creation at work! You can put a small doll, toy army man, ball, egg, or anything you want into the cup as a "passenger," as long as it isn't too big or too heavy. You don't want it crashing to the ground and breaking things. After dropping it, you could rush downstairs or to the yard to see where and how the parachute has landed. Enjoy!

To build a parachute for a small object like a toy, you can use a plastic bag or a lightweight fabric cut into a square or circular shape. Attach strings or threads to the edges of the fabric and connect them to the object to create a harness. Test the parachute by dropping the toy from a height to ensure it opens and slows down the descent.

The first parachute was made from silk. AndrΓ©-Jacques Garnerin, who invented the parachute in 1797, used a silk parachute to make successful jumps.

For a middle school project, you should design a parachute that is the right size for a small action figure. You can make the parachute out of an old pair of parachute pants.
You can make a parachute stay in the air longer by increasing its surface area, either by using a larger parachute or by adding more fins or panels to the canopy. You can also try adjusting the weight of the payload attached to the parachute to help it descend more slowly. Finally, make sure the parachute is properly packed and deployed to maximize its effectiveness in the air.
You have a small person under the small parachute.
