CrunchLabs by Mark Rober, Experience Mind Blowing Fun with The Egg Drop Challenge, Ages 8+

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loves these kits. He loves this one because he can use both a real egg or the fake egg that it comes with if you don't want to waste foods. It's great for the kids to experiment with what does and does not work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is basically another form of Lego, but kids get to learn about balance and gravity. The pieces are rubber instead of hard plastic, so I don't have to worry about breaking or chipping them. The instruction is very easy to follow. Fun kit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our kids ages 8 & up had a blast putting this one together, it's not too difficult and there's very simple instructions on how to create a basic egg drop project, but you can also be creative and make your own, and there's extra parts to do whatever you want. It's also nice that there's a carrying case in case you want to put it away and store it instead. I also wasn't sure if we needed an actual egg for this, but they include a toy egg with a cool slime that goes inside making it actually a little bit messy when it cracks. As opposed to a big mess that a real egg would make, it's actually fun to try to see whether it's gonna crack. There's a lot of good science lessons that can come out of this so it's both educational and fun which is great. Once the kids got started, they didn't want to stop. The main challenge when you first introduce this is to get your kids to try it and start building- it's not something they naturally gravitate to these days unless they have done science experiments before, but science can be fun so they will eventually have fun and realize it's actually fun being creative and try new things.

exactly what I expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will upload a picture of my brother playing with it after his birthday. However, I love this product and I've seen this used before. It's great for kids to have a fun and safe hands on activity. Parents will love it too. Materials are all there just add the egg! It's easy to inbox and quality made! Very durable.

I haven't given the item to my grandson yet so I will see if he likes the item when I give it to him.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a good time doing this with my 11 year old, it unfortunately did not work and he had to make his own tweaks to the design and add on more balloons and such to get it to work but we finally did!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son had a lot of fun building this. He knows who Crunchlabs is and has watched videos so he was very excited to try this. Took him about 45 mins to build on his own and he was able to follow instructions by himself. I think this would make a great gift for kids who enjoy STEAM type projects or toys.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging is in a hard plastic container which makes storing a lot easier . We plan taking this camping for a fun activity for the kids . I can't wait to see how well this works! I watched the video provided with the QR code & it was simple to follow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kids were excited about this from the second it came home. The packaging is very catchy and enticing. When we got around to it, the pieces were not very easy to assemble. I believe it said 8+ but there is no way... my ten year old who is a master at legos definitely needed an adult's help. Some pieces weren't even on the instructions so we left them out. The strings kept pulling out of the holes of the top piece when we trialed it. The holes are too big so the string just pops right through with the wind force and so it falls apart before hitting the ground. After tying a bigger knot and throwing from high points, it was lackluster and lasted less than 5 min before we were all OVER IT haha.
