STEM Starters: Egg Drop

The STEM Starters: Egg Drop kit provides all the essential materials needed for students to design and test an egg-protection device. This kit includes 60 pieces, such as foam squares, rubber bands, and plastic support rods, giving children the tools to create and evaluate their own structures. Perfect for ages 6+, it encourages critical thinking and the use of the engineering design process to solve challenges. Enough materials are provided to create 6 egg-drop devices.

Ideal for individual or group activities, this hands-on project challenges young learners to explore engineering and problem-solving principles while having fun. Students will develop their creative and critical thinking skills as they experiment with different ways to protect the egg during the drop. The kit fosters collaboration and exploration, allowing kids to make educated guesses and redesign their devices until they succeed in the challenge.
