"Egg Drop"

I know Easter has come and gone but Karlee's class did what they call an "Egg Drop" this past week. Each child had to make some kind of object that holds an egg so it wont crack when it is dropped of the schools roof (I let Blake handle this homework assignment). This is what the 2 of them came up with:

They used a swimming tube and a pair of the girls tights to put the egg in. They taped the legs of the tights to the tube. Then used tent poles and a trash bag to make a parachute. Karlee named it her rocket (even though rockets go up and not down it was still cute). Do you think her egg "broke ", "cracked", or "survived"?

Her egg did survive she was so proud when she came home from school to tell us the result. The ROCKET worked!!!
