Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head

Year 2 have been helping Dolly and Mr Pricklepants from 'Toy Story'.

Both of these toys are made out of fabric and were really worried about being left out in the rain as their fabric is absorbent.  We decided to test different materials so that we could find a suitable waterproof material that they could use to make raincoats.  We also had to consider the other properties that the material would need as we wanted to make sure that the toys will be able to move in their raincoats and that they are comfortable.  We decided that the material needed to be quite strong and flexible as well as waterproof.  Here we are testing out the materials.
