LPS Parachutes



LPS can't fly... But what if they could?
There's SO MANY ways to make them fly- drones, parachutes, etc.
I don't have a drone on hand, so I'll make a DIY parachute.
What I did first was I grabbed a plastic grocery bag and traced a circular plate onto it. I cut the circle out, and hole-punched four holes along the edge, about a centimeter away from the end of the circle. I cut 2 pieces of ribbon that could go across the circle and have some slack. I tied a knot through each of the holes, criss-crossing the ribbons, so that they formed a big X that's tied to the circle. When it's done, it should look something like this:



All you have to do is tangle or tie a littlest pet shop into the string, and drop it somewhere high- like flight of stairs. When dropping the parachute be sure to do it safely. A ladder might not be the best of ideas, because you can fall if you lose your balance.
(Note: Be sure to drop the parachute with the LPS falling first, with the parachute above it to catch its fall.😊)

Another SUPER EASY way to make them fly is to just tie a littlest pet shop to the handles of a plastic grocery bag. That way they fall slower, an it's really cool to see the bag inflate like a parachute.
Thank you so much for stopping by!
