My niece loved it. It’s really hard to find building projects for girls that are challenging. Wish they made more options for girls.

My 9 year old had a blast filming himself opening his box and putting all 3 of his robots together. He spent approximately 4 hours total on the projects, then over an hour playing with the robots and racing them across the kitchen.
He did need some help with some of the fidgetier steps but after several failed attempts at subscription boxes for screen free educational fun, I think we finally found the one that will hold his interest.

Great Father/Son Projects

This box was exactly what we were looking for for our little 6 y/o tinker. The recommended age is over 8, but we took a chance and we’re not disappointed. With quality supplies, easy to follow instructions and a little help from mom or dad, the projects are ones our little boy is very proud of.

My Son Loves the Little Workbox

My son (7 almost 8), loves the Little Workboxes so far. He has received 2 boxes so far with 5 total projects. We have worked together to make 3 out of the 5 projects and all the projects have kept him intrigued and excited to see his project work. He is also excited that it is something we do together. I bought a 6 month subscription for him for Christmas.

Girls can build robots?!?!

Got a 3-month subscription for our almost 7-yr old daughter who loves to build, and she was ecstatic when she opened the first box! She got 3 simple robots to build, and HAD to build the crawl bot on the first night. She's trying to patiently space out building the others so she can share and show them to her best friend. Only minor issue we had was the quality of the double-sided tape provided - it wasn't strong enough for holding the battery pack to the body of the robot, so we improvised. She was definitely proud of herself after building the first robot and is excited to build the other robots and see what projects she gets in future boxes.

Motor Robots
You will make three robots using Electric motors! Electric motors are one of the most fascinating inventions of the twentieth century. Electromagnetism is one of the most important forces that we know of in physics. You can use magnets to induce an electric field by causing electrons to move around, and when electricity flows, a magnetic field is created around it! This principle is used to create electric motors.
Spinning Blades
Project 1: A vacuum cleaner uses an electric motor that spins a fan and creates a region of low pressure inside its pipe, and the outside air pushes dust and dirt into the pipe. Project 2: Propeller produces lift in a forward direction. Its rotary motion through the air creates a difference in air pressure between the front and back surfaces of its blades. Project 3: Sunlight contains energy. Solar powered fans harness sunlight to generate electricity to power the motor.
Explore Electricity
Project 1: Batteries are composed of two different metals suspended in an acidic solution. In the Fruit-Power Battery, the two metals used are zinc and copper. The acid comes from the citric acid inside a fruit. Project 2: This Hand Crank Generator project demonstrates the conversion of mechanical energy to electrical energy. Project 3: Buzz Wire Game. The aim is to guide the grip mounted loop through the wire maze without touching the loop against the metal maze.
