The childhood – time of fascinating games in which the child is limited only by his own imagination. Any child with pleasure starts up self-made ships on water and launches planes and helicopters into the sky, and for certain will give to each child and each adult pleasure to start in weeds a self-made parachute to which it is possible to attach any toy figure, for example, of the soldier.

Take strong threads and tie slings to a parachute – for this purpose put a rectangle before yourself vertically and attach one end slings to the left top corner of a rectangle, and the second end – to the right bottom corner.

3. Then repeat the same with the remained two corners – tie to them the second to a sling so that slings crossed in the center. Put a package in half on yourself, and then combine threads, having knotted in the center and having left a small tail of threads to tie future pilot. Having tied a toy to a parachute, you can start it in air.

4. Also as material for a parachute you can use not polyethylene, but fine and light fabric – for example, a handkerchief. A needle with a thread stitch each corner of a handkerchief, forming slings of identical length, and then tie tips a sling to a figure which you launch on a parachute into the sky.

5. In order that the toy was even more interesting, you can tie not a simple, but moving figure to a parachute. Such toy parachute will become great entertainment for the child during street walk and games in the fresh air.
