Is Crunch Labs subscription worth it?

Anonymous
He did Kiwi Crate as a toddler and it was pretty junky and I don’t know if anything was learned most months. Is the Crunch Labs box worth it from a STEM / curiosity / learning standpoint?

My 11 year old got the annual subscription as a birthday gift from grandma. He seems to enjoy it, but I'm not sure it was worth the money. Now that we are in month 6, it seems less exciting (and days/weeks can go by before he does the project). My 8 year old still seems pretty interested (though he might just be a little jealous since his brother gets the box, and sometimes lets him help assemble the project).

It was cool for the first few boxes but the kids ultimately lost interest.

Depends. You may have to help your child put it together.

Great learning concepts! My 11 yr, loves science, building, inventing enjoyed for about 6 months. She did in her own. Then we stopped it a few months later.

She is still very positive about it.

My son got it when he was 10 or 11 and he thought it was a little baby-ish. Projects were good but probably best for a 7-9 year old.

My son is 11 and he enjoys them. He likes the videos and enjoys completing the projects. They don’t take him a ton of time but he does like them. He just got a second years subscription.

They are horribly made. Would not recommend

My 7 and 8 year olds loved the first few, now have lost interest.

Expensive and don't teach much. And the boxes are almost all little variations of the same shooter spinner gizmo.

Mine lost interest fast. Just more junk to sit around.

First 2 boxs our DDs just cannibalized the contents for playing in their dollhouse. We got hte latest box the other day. I plan to sit down with them and do the project together, and we'll see how it goes.
