Michelle at Delightful Learning recently started hosting Instant Challenges. This week was the first challenge. These challenges all use common household materials. The purpose of the challenges is to help kids use critical thinking skills, work together, and have fun in the process.

This week’s challenge was to build a bridge. The bridge could not touch the table between the two squares. It had to be able to hold weight. The kids had 5 minutes to build the bridge. Our bridge collapsed before I could take a picture of it. It was only 1/2″ from the table. Even though, we didn’t have much success with bridge building, we still had fun and worked well together. I am eager to see how challenge #2 goes.

Michelle over at Delightful Learning did something fun on her blog recently called Pay it Forward. If you were one of the first three commenters, then she sent you a little something in the mail to brighten your day. I recieved a yummy smelling bar of soap and candles. Thank you Michelle for your thoughtfulness!
The idea behind Pay it Forward is that you then do this for your blog readers. If you are one of the first 3 commenters on this post, I will send you something to brighten your day. The only catch is that you also have to do this on your blog.
