Materials
Raw eggs (one per team), cardboard, duct tape, lots of straws, some way of enabling a high drop, a cloth for cleaning up the mess.
How to play Egg Drop
To play Egg Drop, divide your players into equal teams and hand the following materials to each.
- A raw egg
- A piece of cardboard
- 1 meter of duct tape
- 40 plastic (bendy) straws
Then set a time limit, say, 15 minutes. In this time, the teams must work together, using their recourses in any way possible to protect their raw egg from the high drop.
Once the time limit has elapsed, collect the eggs from each and bring them to the high drop. Then, one at a time, drop the eggs.
The winning team is the one whose egg does not break after hitting the floor. If multiple teams have successfully protected their egg, the team to use the fewest straws wins.
