We did a parachute experiment at school, and we investigated 2 variables.
They were the canopy size and the material of the canopy.
We found that the bigger the canopy, the slower the parachute will go.
Also, the lighter the material, the slower it will go.
Well if you use house hold materials you could use a grocery bag , string , and a paper cup to put things in and you'll also have to use a knife to put holes on please have an adult with you. warning- don't put any thing over 3 pounds in the paper cup.
OR. Heat rises so if you put a candle at the bottom the parachute could stay in one place or actually RISE!
The easy way or best way to make a parachute, first ensure your material for the chute because this is the important part of a parachute. The parachute will gradually fall if you create a bigger parachute but you must also consider the weight of a small weight on a parachute because if the parachute is too big for the small weight it will be unsuccessful. If you consider all this stuff then you can now make a good parachute.
make a big parachute
Make the parachute wider/bigger or make the parachute deeper. Make the thing pulling it down lighter. Hope this helps. =)

For a middle school project, you should design a parachute that is the right size for a small action figure. You can make the parachute out of an old pair of parachute pants.
The best material is a trash bag!I have even done a science experiment on the topic and it is totally a trash bag.!!!!!!
You have a small person under the small parachute.
The best shape for a parachute is a circle. This is because the circle will have a larger area that will cause more drag to slow the parachute.
Bail out, and parachute down.
A parachute must have suspended weight in order to open. If you have no weight loading the parachute will fail.
the human brain works best when it is used. just like a parachute.
Because of danger to tangle yourself into stropes while you hit water with parachute. And in the same way detaching parachute in the water is harder than in the air...
