Egg Drop

So the other week Aidan's teacher sent home a note that said we need to make a container for an egg drop. The container could not be bigger 7x7x7, egg had to be in a zip lock bag, then add what we thought would protect the egg. So we ended up making two boxes.

The first box we added spray insulation and some bubble wrap. It did not break the egg when we dropped off the roof of our house. The only reason we did not use this method was because it was very messy to get open and get the egg.

The second box we made we added three long body sponges and one round. The egg fit right in the middle. This is the one we sent to school with Aidan for the egg drop off the school roof! (FYI-the box sized we used was 6x6x6)

2nd Box


Waiting for everyone!
