STEM/Storytime Saturday: Construction

First, we read teh story of Rapunzel. Since there are many different versions, we read one, but checked the illustrations in another. We found out that a "rapunzel" is an herb or a salad plant, also called rampion. 

Then we were challenged to build a tower, as high as possible, from newspaper and masking tape. First we crumpled pages, and tried to make a tall pile. When that didn't work, we changed our strategy, and this one did work! Just look!
Our tower is still on display in the Children's Room so everyone can see it!
Rabbit-punzel, Rabbit-punzel, let down your ears! ha-ha!
