Toothpick Bridge

This is a bit late, but before the Christmas break, my wife and I attended several class parties and activities for our kids at school. One of them was a toothpick bridge testing party. Here's the bridge my oldest son built with his group.

It didn't support as much weight as some of the other groups, but they did better than others. The bridge's deck collapsed first, but they probably had the strongest towers of any of the groups. I think he felt good about it and it was fun to be there with him.
