Have an Egg-citing Thanksgiving!

Here is another fun egg-speriment for you to try if you dare. (Yes, I learned this also at the Museum of Science and Industry).


Get four eggs and four paper towel/toilet paper rolls. Fill four clear cups with water (food colored or not...) Spread out the four cups and put a side of a binder on top of the cups. Line up the paper towel/toilet paper rolls with the cups. Place the four eggs HORIZONTALLY on top of the rolls. Smack with a broom and believe it or not, most of the eggs should end up in the cup. Crazy, huh?


This video is pretty short, but check out how many eggs ended up in her cups...Pretty nifty.

WOW!! That's pretty amazing...do you think we should try it here at home under your supervision?

My suggestion would be to use plain old non-colored water, though.

Thanks for sharing this eggs-citement - quite eggs-traordinary.
