As summer approaches, parents seeking affordable and educational activities for their children can turn to Mark Rober’s CrunchLabs Summer Camp. This virtual camp, led by the former NASA engineer and popular YouTuber, offers a 12-week program designed to spark interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
What is Camp CrunchLabs?
Camp CrunchLabs is a virtual summer camp that provides children with a weekly delivery of Build Box STEM toys. Over the course of 12 weeks, participants receive a new box each week, filled with hands-on engineering projects and access to exclusive videos featuring Mark Rober and special celebrity guests. The camp is tailored for budding engineers aged 8-12, though it welcomes anyone with a passion for science and fun.
The CrunchLabs subscription offers three different box options: the Creative Kit for ages 6-10, the Build Box for ages 8-13, and the Hack Pack for ages 14 to 101. Each box includes high-quality project components, instructional booklets, and activities designed to enhance the learning experience. For the summer camp, participants receive the Year 1 Build Box series on an accelerated schedule, ensuring a new project every week.
Cost and Accessibility
At $27.45 per box, Camp CrunchLabs requires an upfront payment of $329.40 for the entire summer. This cost is significantly lower than traditional summer camps, which can average $1,200 per week. The program not only provides an affordable alternative but also offers children the unique opportunity to learn from one of their favorite YouTubers.
