Really Long Straw. According to the Guinness World Records, the longest straw chain measured 11,298 m (37,066 ft., 10 in.) using 58,469 drinking straws. But could anyone take a drink through it?!  With this activity, you’ll see if you can set your own record for the longest working straw!  For ages 5-12. Pick up materials at your library while supplies last.

Watch Tues., May 11th video for detailed instructions with one of our librarians.
