activity.

Step-by-Step Setup
Step 1: Gather Your Materials
Collect the materials and place them on a flat surface. Ensure the cups and cardboard pieces are
clean and ready to use.
Step 2: Prepare the Cups
Mark some cups with stickers or colored markers to act as bonus point indicators. For example:
Blue sticker: Standard points.
Red sticker: Bonus points.
Step 3: Start Building the Tower

2. Second Layer: Lay a cardboard piece horizontally across the top of the cup.
3. Add More Layers:
