I have to help my daughter make a parachute for an egg drop at school.
Are there any guidelines on design, such as canopy size for a weight
one of you might be able to share or a handy link.


Ahh memories! I remember going through the same exercise with my daughter
way too many years ago. The chute size will be driven by the contest rules. I
remember making a crumple zone for the egg by forming a tube out of paper.
