Alicia, I mean Captain Vortex, needs your help! Join in and create your very own Air Vortex Cannon to knock over lightweight targets!
To build your own you will need a cup (paper is preferred for recycling purposes, but plastic also works), scissors, a balloon, tape or rubber bands, and some lightweight objects like a ball of crumpled wrapping paper or some tinsel.
