Engineering is all about solving real-world problems with creativity, science, and a bit of trial and error. Whether you're building bridges, designing apps, or figuring out how to make sneakers more eco-friendly, engineers make ideas real. Step into an engineer’s mindset and design a solution to an everyday challenge.

Your Task:
Think like an engineer! Choose one of the following everyday problems:
- Backpacks are too heavy.
- People waste too much water brushing their teeth.
- Phone batteries die too quickly.
- Long lines at school lunch take forever.

Describe a simple product, device, or system that could help fix that issue. You don’t need all the answers—just think like an engineer and propose a smart starting point!
