Competitive construction activity using artstraws (dirt cheap - usually less than £15 for 1800), pipecleaners, sellotape and string.

Build bridges and towers. Test them to destruction.

Score points for height/span, load-bearing capacity, parsimony (weight of final structure), and arbitrarily crazed design constraints.

I like this. Simple, cheap and all sorts of possibilities. tregenza
