Provide a collection of plastic lids in a variety of sizes and colors. Challenge the children to stack them as tall as they can using as many lids as they can. Encourage them to try many possible solutions. Of course, stacking them in order from largest to smallest makes the most stable tower, but be prepared for some creative thinking as the children try to solve this problem.
