Rafi & Wyatt's Backyard Adventures: The Rocket Experiment A STEM adventure about rockets, force, and friendship for curious kids ages 5-8!

Six-year-old Wyatt and his goofy Sheepadoodle puppy Rafi are back-and this time, the backyard becomes a rocket launch pad! When Wyatt builds a homemade soda-bottle rocket, everything seems ready for blast-off... until Rafi's wildly wagging tail shakes up the countdown.

As the trio experiments with air pressure, force, and motion, they discover that science isn't just about launching rockets-it's about teamwork, patience, and learning from mistakes.
