STEM at Home — Egg Drop Challenge Kit (Physics & Engineering Design)
Can you build a capsule that protects a raw egg from a 10-foot drop? The EdTech Academy Egg Drop Challenge Kit gives students everything they need to engineer, test, and improve a protective structure using real physics principles.
Students explore impact force, impulse, momentum, and material properties as they design a capsule that absorbs the shock of impact and protects their egg. Two full sets of materials are included so students can build, test, redesign, and test again — the engineering design process in action.
