Abstract: The toy rocket includes inner and outer sleeve members with the inner sleeve member fitting into the outer sleeve in a slidable airtight relationship. An end assembly extends from a distal end of the inner sleeve member, including a launch tube at the distal end thereof. An external elongated member is supported by the end assembly and has holding elements at opposing ends thereof. A stretchable cord member extends from one holding member to an end piece of the outer sleeve member then to the other holding member, wherein rearward movement and then release of the outer sleeve member pushes air through the launch tube launching the toy rocket into the air.
