Egg Drop Challenge

Build a contraption from recycling that keeps a raw egg in one piece when it falls – then drop it and hold your breath.

Time: 60 min
Age: 7–12 years
Energy: Medium
Where: Outdoors

Kids design, test, find what broke and improve – the same loop engineers use. Working with limited materials and a time limit trains planning and flexible thinking, and a cracked egg is an honest result nobody can argue with.
