Flippin' Awesome! ─ Water Bottle Flip Games, Tricks and Stunts for Everyone!

Kids all over America are obsessed with the latest craze: bottle flipping. The goal of the game is to flip half-full water bottles and have them land right-side up. According to Boston Globe, the draw to this phenomenon is ?simple”: ?Even in an age of digital distractions, this diversion is quick, it’s portable, and while the science behind it is fairly elaborate?water, angular momentum, and gravity paving the way for a soft landing?it requires no training.”

While it’s annoying to virtually all parents, it’s also considered a healthy, analog STEM activity that teaches kids physics and engages their motor skills, so many educators are saying it’s not so bad?and could be a great learning activity.

This book features twelve different bottle-flipping games on six double-sided tear-out posters, along with rules for each game and information on the physics behind the flip, various trick shots and stunts, and twenty-four tear-out score sheets.
