In case you have not heard of Groovy Lab in a Box, it’s a monthly subscription service that teaches STEMists (your children!) all about science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Each month, they send out a themed box filled with investigations that are fun and hands on. The investigations culminate into an Engineering Design Challenge, where your STEMists must apply what they’ve learned from the investigations (and use their critical thinking skills) to complete the challenge.

I cannot tell you how much I love kits like this as gifts for kids. I love to give them as Christmas and birthday gifts because I always give educational gifts but that doesn’t mean they have to be dull or boring. This looks like fun!
I agree! Learning can be loads of fun!
What a fun and creative box. I love when they can learn things hands on. This box looks like something my nephew would love.
I’m sure he would!
