Egg drop competition

My family did our own Egg drop competition in the weekend. 

We could use anything around the house to stop our egg from breaking when dropped from a great height but the only rule was that it had to be completed within 5 mins.

Here‘s what everyones protective case looked like before the drop.

- Dad                                                                    - Ajani (his is in the pink container)

       

- Jahzara                                                             - Evangeline 


        

- Faith                                                                   - Me 

        

The egg drop

My big brother Ajani went on top of our roof with the supervision on my Dad to test our eggs. 


The results

 - Broken eggs 

      

       

- Eggs still intact 

This competition was a lot of fun. I think next time I would use squishy material inside my box to stop my egg from breaking.

  1. Hi Genevieve.
    That is a very fascinating experiment. You and your family found interesting ways to create a safe case for your delicate eggs.Yes I think you are right about putting lots of squishy material or maybe wrapping it in a hand towel would prevent your egg from breaking when it hits the ground. Let me know what happens.Keep up the great blogging!
