 * What's the problem?**
 * **Ask** - give the traditional pizza box a second chance
 * **Imagine** - The box was designed with functionality in mind, able to be used as plates when guests arrive- saving the paper plates for another day. The box can also be reconfigured into a compact storage container.
 * **Design, Build** -

Challenges for you to work on...
 * Do It**
 * brainstorm other kinds of containers (in the broadest sense of the word) and investigate how they came to be. (For example eggs/milk/cereal/juice cartons, trash/oil/cracker barrels, paper/plastic/fabric bags, trailer trucks, rail cars, containers ships, oil tankers, baskets for fruit/flowers/vegies, puzzle/game/toy/lunch boxes, toothpaste/superglue tubes, toilet paper/aluminum foil rolls, food cans/jars/boxes, back backs, wallets, purses, suitcases, cell phone cases, propane/gasoline tanks, etc.)


 * design a new/better/more interesting one and/or to design a useful/artistic/creative use for recycled containers.
 * explore some containers found in nature: eggs, chrysalis, nuts, seeds, kangaroo/seahorse pouches, skulls, river beds, geodes, living cells, etc.
