Materials: stiff cardboard, elastic band, tooth pick, sticky tape, hole puncher
Steps: 1) Bend one piece of cardboard in half.
2) Make holes in each end about 1 cm from the edge.
3) Thread one end of the elastic band through one of the holes in the card.Break a matchstick in half and put one piece through the loop as shown.
4) Do the same for the other end of the elastic band and tape down the two match sticks.
5) ” Set” the flic flac by bending it inside out. Place it on a desk and hold it down with your finger.When you move your finger away from the flic flac it should jump into the air.

Hi Allstars – we had a crack at making the flic-flacs fly this afternoon. Take a look at our blog to see how we got on.
[...] We spotted a great little science activity on the 5/6P Allstars blog (from Sydney Australia) yesterday and asked for some clear instructions to help us try them out. They have written a great post with clear instructions and photographs to follow. We had some time to have a go and didn’t do too bad – we think we need to find some thicker card though! [...]

The explanation by Keanu and Zayan is very clear and is easy to follow. The flic flacs have been a successful way of demonstrating the concept of energy.
