Getting Resourceful with the Egg Drop Challenge

Egg Drop Challenge

In this activity, learners will utilize entrepreneurial mindsets like problem solving, resourcefulness, learning from failure, and adaptability in one hands-on experiment!

Using only household items, youth will prototype and test a way to protect an egg from breaking when dropped. Consider other situations where real world entrepreneurs might use these same skills, like protecting a lunar rover when it lands on the surface of the moon or making cars safer to drive.

Show us your egg drop device by posting a picture on social media and tagging @OurVentureLab on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram!
