This spring we’ve been obsessed with robots: from dreaming up Earth Day robots to our recent launch of Hack Pack: the all-new programmable robot-in-a box. You never can know what CrunchLabs is up to – check out the CrunchBlog to catch up on all our spring flings with robotic things.


Now, it’s time to shift gears and dive into summer vacation adventures in Thinking Like an Engineer.

Introducing Challenge #1:

Stylized text 'TOILET PAPER LAZER MAZE' with cartoon toilet paper rolls.



Our first challenge of summer 2024 is the Toilet Paper Maze/Obstacle Course. Summon all your agility and make your own laser maze in your house. Using toilet paper, create a three dimensional maze in a hallway. Then, try to cross through it to the other side - but don't break the toilet paper laser beams!


There will be four winners for each of the summer's six super challenges. 

Challenge winners will receive a challenge prize pack: a signed patch, a signed backpack, and a signed Phat Gus.


Then, from those winners, Mark will choose the grand prize winner who will be invited to the real-life CrunchLab and star in the 12th and final video with Mark Rober himself.


Even if you participated in camp last year, you’ll want to invent new projects to submit for a chance to win the prize pack this year. If you can't get enough of toilet paper laser mazes, check out last year’s amazing entries on YouTube.

INTRODUCING CHALLENGE #1:

INTRODUCING CHALLENGE #1:


With the recent launch of our
Hack Pack, we have robotics and coding on the brain! With all the technology we have today, we can create new machines that don’t use plastics, and use coding to make things digital rather than generating more single-use products which end up in the trash, or polluting the ocean.

Go ahead, you’ve got our permission to get lost in a daydream for a moment– imagine the perfect environmentally friendly robot.

  • What if there was a robot that turns plastic into gold?


  • Could an algorithm reduce contamination to improve composting?


  • Can we automate sorting trash from recycling?

All it takes is a good, creative idea and a little help to implement it to change the world around you.

#TeamSeas saw a problem – an estimated 11 millions tons of plastic entering the ocean every year. So Mark Rober and MrBeast teamed up to dream up a solution.
