THINKING LIKE AN ENGINEER MEANS YOU’RE RESILIENT. IT’S GETTING BACK UP AFTER BEING KNOCKED DOWN AND APPROACHING THINGS DIFFERENTLY. THAT DETERMINATION HELPS KIDS TACKLE EVERYDAY CHALLENGES AND IT’S THE SAME DETERMINATION THAT PUTS ROVERS ON OTHER DANG PLANETS!

Having the video with Mark teaching and sharing his knowledge with the kids in his usual fun and passionate way is THE BEST PART for sure!

Your videos cover so much more than any other subscription we've tried! The kids get so many incredible ideas and they spin off on things of their own.

What makes this subscription better than the rest is the video accompaniment that really makes it feel personal. CrunchLabs projects have shown to last for weeks after completion while the kids create games or challenges to play with them!

He is a huge Mark Rober fan, but I love that these boxes take his learning to a whole new level of problem solving and exploring engineering.

My 9yr old has had many toys over the years, but ends up grabbing the switch, xbox, youtube, etc. This experience was very different. We watched your video together, learned some basic physics, completed the 1st box & spent some quality time together. Today he was proud of his creation & was excited to show his sister & friends!

The family time and educational value we got is priceless and worth the $30 bucks.

Engineering Sustainability

At CrunchLabs, we believe the best way to inspire responsible engineering is to lead by example. Here's where we're starting:

Our packaging is compostable. We use an uncoated cardboard box and compostable plastic substitutes to package and ship our boxes. 

Our toys grow on trees. We use as much wood as possible in the design of our toys.

Our toys stay out of the landfill longer. We make our toys robust and repairable so they get enjoyed for as long as possible.
