Will it crack? experiment

Quarantine

 Today on quarantine we did a science experiment, our experiment was dropping and egg and how we can prevent it cracking. I used straws while my sister used balloons both materials had their ups and downs like straws are strong but could damage the egg on impacts but balloons provide a soft landing but are a very weak material, I used my straws to make a triangle in a triangle it looked like this :

a big mess of straws but it worked my sisters one was made of balloons and a plastic bag for a parachute here it is 

And finally the drop test. We started with a low drop then higher and higher until we started throwing them in the air, Saffy was clearly winning all I could do was hope one of her balloons popped. She threw her contraption into the air and as soon as it hit the ground one of her balloons popped and her egg flew through the sky and landed in a pile of shell and yolk, I had done it I won! 

Question time: Have you ever done this activity? if so did you do the same thing we did or not let us know!

Quarantine Stroll

Quarantine

Has your neighborhood been putting teddy bears up on their window because our neighborhood has i'm not sure why they put bears up on their windows but my best guess is just to have something to do when you have a stroll. That's why I made this free template that you can use all you have to do is print out, its like a checklist of teddy bears.

Do you have any teddy bears in your neighborhood if so whats your favorite?
