This past weekend my son introduced my father-in-law to his favorite YouTuber- Mark Rober. My father-in-law is not an internet-savvy guy and had never heard of the epic backyard squirrel obstacle courses<\/a>. And he had never heard of elephant toothpaste<\/a>. My Mom was eager to tell him all about her favorite Mark Rober prank- the porch pirate-deterring glitter bombs<\/a>. And as he watched, thanks to Mark Rober, he (and all of you too) got a great laugh and learned something simultaneously.<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s Mark\u2019s central goal in life- to entertain while teaching. With his new subscription-based engineering box, Crunch Labs<\/a>, Mark Rober is getting real-life engineering projects into the hands of kids nationwide. <\/span><\/p>\n
We home-school, so Crunch Labs has been part of our curriculum from the first moment I heard about it. And it\u2019s been delightful to see my son jump in feet first and create and learn with their epic kits.<\/span><\/p>\n
