But did you package it in a box with the Golden Arches logo?
I improved my facsimile straw.
Make two of them, even better make two in different colors. (I have a box of differently colored flexible neck straws).
Pair them together with the small “J” sections paired to the opposing long section, and glue a couple drops of hot-melt glue via glue gun. Now you have double suction power!
You can create even wilder straw shapes by waving a small butane torch nearby to bend the straws into crazy shapes.
I’m always looking for ways to keep my grandkids entertained while encouraging engineering skills in them. Sometimes they surprise me with toys they design. I’m careful to keep the dangerous tools away and in my hands only to help them (last week my 4-yr-old granddaughter wanted to use my bandsaw, I said no!).
