Students in our 3–5 after school enrichment program took part in an egg drop engineering challenge. They were responsible for designing their own devices and reflecting on what went right or wrong after testing them. The activity encouraged creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork. Overall, the experience was a lot of fun, with only a few eggs cracking along the way.
