More About The Great Tetra Pak Experiment: Which Carton Makes the Best Toy Boat? 🧴
Not all cartons sail the same way. Some glide smoothly, while others wobble like sleepy ducks on the pond. That raises an important backyard engineering question: which recycled carton actually makes the best toy sailboat?
A milk carton often feels sturdy and balanced because of its wider shape. Juice cartons are usually lighter and may move faster in gentle wind. Water containers can float well too, though taller designs sometimes tip more easily. The only real way to know is through testing. ��
Try running your own backyard experiment:
● Race a milk carton boat against a juice carton boat
● Add small pebbles inside for ballast and compare balance
● Test which hull handles stronger wind best
● Decorate each boat and vote for the best design
