Kids Summer S.T.E.A.M. Program - Challenge: Protect an Egg on it's Fall to Earth

Challenge: Protect a Fragile Egg on its Fall to Earth

In this activity, the kids will tour the museum with a focus on natural disasters that have impacted LBI.  They will learn about the change from potential energy to kinetic energy and the energy transfer that occurs on impact.  Using engineering design, the kids will design, create and test a device that will prevent a raw egg from breaking when dropped from a specific height.
