Egg drop help?

Question

I'm looking for some help on my Physic's egg drop lab.
I have a certain amount of supplies:
- 2 pieces of paper (8x11)
- 2 sheets of paper towell
- 3 wooden skewer sticks
- 3 large marshmallows and some small ones
- limited string and tape
The egg will be dropped from 2 stories, I think.

I know making a parachute should be the best thing. & the marshmallows can be used at insolation. These are the only things I can use and I have to be able to make it in 20 minuets. I have an idea, but I don't know if it will work. Do you have any suggestions? Or if you were to do this project, how would you do it?

Answer 1

If it has been done before, you might study how other (winning) entries did it.
