At the Cubs Scouts pack meeting tonight we had all the boys compete for the last half hour in an epic extravaganza of engineering, or at least that's what I'd hoped. It didn't work out as well as I thought it would. Marshmallows and toothpicks, to build the longest, highest, or biggest bridge/tower/castle/structure they could, broken down by dens. Well, the marshmallows weren't quite rigid enough for it, so the buildings all kind of...drooped...but the kids had fun anyway, I think. There was some success at least. But I need to figure out something better.
