2017 SRP - week 3

For every week of physical building we make a correlation with a less tangible thing that when created/invented contributed to a better world. During our egg drop challenge we mentioned life preservers, airbags etc.

Can a child keep an egg safe from all harm? Even when an adult drops it from a 9 foot ladder?
We learned our lesson and spread plastic tablecloths over our floor before giving eggs to children.

We simply do not have many pictures of our adventures this week. We grabbed everything we could think of from our supply cupboards to give the children a variety of options. Rebecca set up the ladder in the City Auditorium parking lot. We did spread a table cloth on the ground to make clean-up easier.

Survival rates varied. All enjoyed the challenge.

Funny story: Outside, when children were lining up to have their egg tested by the drop, one little girl asked us to drop an egg with no protection. Just an egg. To see what would happen. We did. It broke.
