Our egg experiment

We learned that the shape of an egg (arch) is one of the strongest and sturdiest shapes in architecture. We proved it! First we tried to crush an egg with our bare hand wrapped around it. We couldn't do it! Then we opened the small end of the egg and emptied out the insides. We tried to make them pretty even and started stacking books on top of the four eggs.

We made it to 29 books. The 30th did the eggs in!

What an amazing example again of the wisdom and creativity of God! We had such a great time with this experiment!
