Why parents love it
Fun for kids. Effortless for parents.
Screen-free learning that keeps kids engaged, sparks curiosity in science and problem-solving, and brings back nostalgic, hands-on experiences in a digital world. It is quality time together that is easy and exciting.
It builds confidence, creativity and curiosity, the "I made this" moment, while fostering independence and still being kid-friendly. It supports school success by making learning feel like play, and it works for homeschool, after-school or enrichment.
What sets us apart
Six things that make the box different
-
We include THREE projects each month
Not just one or two. Every box is three separate projects covering three different topics.
-
All supplies included, even the batteries
Pre-portioned and no-prep. Nothing to gather, nothing to buy, no last-minute store run.
-
A variety of STEM topics
Over 100 projects in our vast inventory across chemistry, physics, astronomy, electronics, motors, hydraulics, coding, biology, earth science, paleontology, anatomy, geology, weather, botany and more.
-
Eligible for many scholarship and grant programs
Funded families and schools can use education funds with us, and we provide the documentation programs ask for.
-
Free how-to video library
Project videos by K-8 STEM teacher Mike R., @ThatSTEMGuy, and viral YouTuber Jake Makes.
-
Aligned with academic standards
NGSS, Common Core and more, so the science integrates with what is already being taught.

Almost better than Disney
Got this for my grandson and he said the only thing better would be Disney. He's made VR goggles, a hydraulic claw, and more. Creative, exciting, and absolutely worth the money.

Perfect gift for curious kids
My daughter built glowing bouncy balls and a VR viewer, all by herself. Easy-to-follow instructions explain the science behind the fun. We can't wait for next month.
