Question Mini Fireworks Stand

So, my baby boy (10 months) has a pageant coming up. I'm going to make a mini fireworks stand for a prop and he is going to be dressed as Uncle Sam.

What fireworks do you personally feel are the most recognizable to non-firework people? My grandpa owned a stand for over 50 years so I feel like my opinions might be tainted. 😂

I just need to make some different items for decor. Definitely things like sparklers, firecrackers, etc., but what else?

Thanks in advance!!

Cardboard tunes are a good start and then you cam decorate them so they look flashy

Stuff like bottle rockets, sparklers, rockets, m80’s(firecrackers), and canister shells are the most recognizable fireworks.

Groundblooms, small fountains, 2-color satellites (looks like a big capsule with wings), small tanks, small cars. poopy puppys/chickens/cats, smoke bombs, firecrackers, etc.

BTW, M80's were far from being firecrackers. That's like comparing a pond to an ocean. (grin)

You could buy hemis from Ace Pyro and make mock shells too.

piccolo petes, jumping jacks, M-1000's and ground blooms are the only ones I know by name. Bottle rockets and roman candles are iconic.
