HOW TO PLAY
1

Give each team an identical, limited supply of paper and tape.

2

Set a time limit for teams to design and build a freestanding bridge spanning a fixed gap between two tables or chairs.

3

Once time is up, test each bridge by rolling a small toy car across it or placing a weight in the middle.

4

Note how much weight or how many crossings each bridge can support before collapsing.

5

The team whose bridge holds the most weight, or supports the most successful crossings, wins.
