Teamwork + creativity = balloon chairs! 🎈💡 Our LHS JAG class took on the challenge of building a chair using only balloons, tape, and string. They had 30 minutes to make a seat, arms, and back sturdy enough for a teammate to sit in for 15 seconds. The designs were awesome, and the teamwork was even better! #learningisfun #larnedpride #besttribeever
