I have seen this one done a few times and every time I am amazed!
Who knew that that the simple egg was so strong!
I took these pictures while helping out with a kids program where this simple yet amazing experiment was demonstrated. Let me tell you, the looks on the kids faces were simply hilarious!
What You'll Need
*A Dozen Raw Eggs in their carton. We used 5 dozen.
*Plastic to cover the floor (just in case!)
*A few volunteers to join in on this fun learning experiment.

What to Do:
Make sure to remove your socks and shoes. This is one experiment that will only work if you are barefoot.
Lay out the plastic to protect the floor.
Have the kids help arrange the egg cartons in a staggered pattern just like stepping stones. It will make it easier to step from one carton to the next.
Start by having the kids make a few predictions as to what will happen when they walk across the raw eggs.
Some of my favorite, and very scientific predictions included…
“The eggs will crack and break!”
“Your feet will be covered in scrambled eggs!”
“You will have egg guts all over your feet!”
