Sugar Cube Pyramids

When studying pyramids in Ancient Egypt, one of the projects is to build a pyramid out of sugar cubes. This was fun and not as messy as I had expected, though certainly not neat.

She started by dumping them all out and trying to group them in a pile.

He started with a very exact method so it would be perfectly square.

Her finished pyramid.

His finished pyramid.

He didn't stop there. He added an entire complex. The side pyramids for the wives, the path from the river into the pyramid, etc.
