Paper Helicopter

Paper Helicopter

You've probably made paper airplanes before, but here's how to make a paper helicopter.First cut a sheet of paper in half.
Fold one of the halves about a third of the way down.
Cut down the middle from the top until you reach the fold.This creates two "wings."
Below the fold, come down a bit and then cut in from the sides so that you can fold the sides into thirds.Fold the bottom up a little bit so that the sides stay folded in thirds.
Throw the bottom of the helicopter high into the air.It will turn over in mid-air and come twirling back down!
Will it work better if the "wings" are longer?
Try making smaller helicopters. Do they work better?
