This game works well with teams that are not too large. A good team size is four or five people. Pass out one egg and a limited supply of materials (e.g. four straws, a three foot strip of Scotch Tape, one section of a newspaper, etc.) This activity is more challenging with less materials provided, so decide how challenging you wish to make it.
Explain the rules: the mission is to protect the egg from cracking using teamwork, creativity, and a good design. You will drop each structure at least fifteen feet, and so the goal is for each structure to be able to withstand such a fall. Each team will only be given limited resources, and so they must be wise with what they have. They may not use any other resources other than what is given to them. Optionally, you can have other criteria for judging including:

most creative design

most stylish/visually appealing

(any other awards you wish)

Decide on an appropriate amount of time (e.g. 20-25 minutes) and then instruct them to begin! Tell them to place their egg inside their structure.

- Division of work because you are able to get more work done in less amount of time if everyone knows what their task is and how to do it efficiently.

- Working in a team also allows you to see other team members perspectives on the topic and how this allows use for creativity, efficiency and overall different point of view.

- Using everyone's strengths to their advantage.

- For some people they are able to enhance their leadership qualities. It does not mean being bossy and telling your team members what to do and how to do it but it means you are the one who initiates the communication and helps others in the group who may need help.

When time is up, collect all the structures. Now is dramatic finale in which the structures are dropped (or thrown!) from at least 15 feet in elevation and then carefully inspected to see if the eggs survived. The winners are the groups that successfully protected the egg. If you chose to have other awards, announce those winners also.

This activity is useful to illustrate the importance of teamwork. Ask everyone to reflect on how their group accomplished the task, what worked, what was challenging, etc.
